Roller chassis marathon- need best electrical system

[Elove]

Have a 93 ezgo marathon roller project. Any recommendations for the easiest, cheapest parts model to convert this too? Total newb here so will need a lot of help understanding the terminology used around the site. I believe that series cart will be the most common here but would like to hear all options?

Thanks for your help!

series cart is best for a starter cart
is there any electronics in it ?

[Elove]

Nope- not a shred of wire, parts to elec system, or a batt tray. Looks like batt tray rotted out, maybe went to local dealer who mayhave talked customer into junking it. No motor either. It's a body w decent wheels and complete steering system.

How dis?

what is your budget ?

Hahahahahahah!!! Unlimited funds under 500.00$ lmao
Seriously.... I know it will prob cost me $1000.00 if I buy all new stuff at a minimum but I want to buy as cheap used as possible-
My goal is really a slow project that my young kids (3 & 2yrs old) can watch done...... Course they can't do much now but they fell like they help daddy- my original post was to basically help me decide if it's worth fixing to use as a work horse or just flip it as a roller project to someone else who wants remaining parts or mount a small block Chevy in it! Lol!


BTW- thanks for fixing photo Crash Test Dummy! I'm on mobile so I couldn't figure out how to edit photo to rotate- 👍🏻😎

Does the motor mount perpendicular to the axles or parallel to the axles?
Can you find an ID tag on the passenger side of hump on the floor? Is yes, what is the manufacture code? The last 2 digits tell the year it was made.

I just pulled a running stock motor, controller and lead acid batteries from my project and need to get rid of them.
If your interested, lets talk.
