Man, I would love to have that in my collection. Keep us posted on the work.

FYI: If you decided to give that cart just a bit more ooopmh, you could but 4 8v batteries in there to run at 32v versus 24. I have done this to 2 old 24v carts now. I have a motor guy who inspected / refurbished each motor (1/5 HP each) who made that suggestion. He is sure that those old motors can handle the extra Vs without issue. So far, so good.
