    We had a 1990 Model DS Club Car with Yamaha 9hp (I think) engine. Kids used it as their car in the hood. Sat for years when kids went off to college. Recently got it going with new carb (only $35) and headgasket copper sealer. Reliable study machine. Just sold it.

    20160508_172105.jpg Here is a picture of it loaded up.

    Since I got this one I have secured anothwr free cart. A gas one already lifted with larger tires. Guy said just come get it from his house.

    That is a free mower with grass catcher as well. Think it needs a solonoid or battery. Also needs a bit of welding and reinforcement on ThE oposite side of the deck edge

    I don't have one but I've been thinking of one for the farm. It needs a dump bed. I'm leaning toward electric so I can drive it up and down the barn aisle without making a ton of noise.

    Golf cart or electric UTV?

    I'd get a golf cart. Way cheaper. And mods are cheaper I think. I have been bitten. This one is getting a whole drive upgrade

    As it sits now. Gave it a 6" drop axle lift. And it's riding on borrowed 22s right now. I'm in search of the best deal now.

    Going to put upgraded controller on it and ordered my wire upgrade today.

    In the futur future I will put a flip rear seat on it that will turn into a flatbed 20160516_191146.jpg

    I'm not sure the offset would be right with those rims? The ezgo needs a 3/5 offset to clear the steering knuckle and spindles .

    PM me what your looking to get out of Them. Shipping probably will kill the deal.

    That's actually one of the 2 tread patterns I was going to get / look at.
