I have a chance for the cart pictured here. They want $650.00 for it. Does anyone have an idea what it may be worth? Also, can you tell from the pictures what year it is?

is it running?

It's running. The ad said the engine had been overhauled. I haven't gone to look at it. I have seats from an electric cart that may work. I asked what year it was and for the serial #. I haven't gotten a reply yet. What you think?

Looks like a Marathon maybe 89-91 or so.....probably a good price. offer him 500-550 and see what he says. Worst he can say is no, right. I figure that the wheels are basic black steel and those are Mudbuster tires on them. Thinking maybe 350-400 worth of wheels and tires.....so even at that price you aren't doing to bad.

Thanks cowboy. I'm going to get up with him tomorrow and go take a look.
If this one doesn't work out, there will be another. I have an ezgo and cc electric for the wife and grandkids, but was looking to get me something to turn into a hunting buggy.
