Upgrade my Cushman?
I have a 60's Cushman 3 wheeler with original resister control. I really like the cart but the electrics could sure use an update. The throttle and reverse/forward contacts are worn and everything gets hot when it's running. What would be the best path to a solid state controller?

Re: Upgrade my Cushman?
Was hoping for insight from someone that has actually updated an older cart, probably pretty rare. If I tackle this will be a winter project so have quite a bit of time to do my research.
