Elmco 11e serial #396

sandikoff · 08-06-2019, 07:52 PM

Recently acquired elmco 11e serial number 396, by all I can find it seems to be a very early model of the elmco versions of the Rolls-Royce golf carts. I could not locate a club car identifying tag.

The issue is that the rod that holds the seat up appears to have come down and grounded out on the batteries and caused a bit of a fire. It has completely destroyed the mechanism for forward and reverse. I cannot find any information, I have no idea how old it is but I'm guessing 79 or so because I found a serial number 340 for sale and it was marketed as a 1978.

I have been diligently searching the interwebs for any information on this machine and haven't been having much luck.

It has a beautiful flying lady on the hood and a horn mounted on the passenger side of hood.

I wanted to post a picture but the system to do so here seems a bit beyond my level of comprehension.. I do not have an HTTP address for a photo so I guess I won't be posting one at this time

I would like to get this machine up and running as soon as possible. I have to replace all of the batteries, which that is the easy part.. but until I've located the forward and reverse mechanism I don't even want to bother going that far because I need to start with the worst part of the burnt up damage, and of course all the charge of the world does not really matter if it has no means to go forwards or backwards..

Any advice, help would be greatly appreciated

Nice Cart! I bet if you could post a picture of the damaged area you will be more successful in finding answers too.

I have had several Royal Rides. Judging by the grill on yours and the solid windshield it appears to be an early one. Does your cart also have 3 pedals? One for gas, one for brake and one for parking brake?

The hood ornament on yours is not original but is neat looking. Post a photo of underneath the seat and confirm the pedal setup will help as well.

Also, these were based on club car frames so once you have the photo of the seat you will most likely get more help going forward by posting in the club car section once we can figure out what model you have.
