Not sure what you are going to do with the cart, but most likely you will want to upgrade the drive train to more modern components. If you need a motor build, Chuck at Electric Motor Parts is great to work with and has cores that would be correct for your cart.
I just went thru the whole upgrade using Chuck's trick motor upgrades and the 700 amp controller kit from Scotty B. Have everything mocked up and wired, now disassembling for paint.
I have learned some of the pitfalls as I move so if you have any questions, I might have an answer.

Johny if you will score your tape-edges with a razor blade before removing the tape, the Plasti-Dip won't try to peel.

Thanks for the info. I wasn't considering new drive train or modern parts, but after zipping up and down the neighborhood, I wish somethings were better. Especially the speed. Do you have a website for "Chuck at Electric Motor Parts?"

Awe man....now I know. Thanks for the trick. I have a feeling I'll be putting on a new set of stripes on next spring. That will come in in handy.
