Resto project log

[Blaster_Kart]

I thought I would post a project log of the roller we picked up for the wife. I think it is a 2000 model. Came with the motor, but it doesn't want to turn freely. Needs bottom end and top end work. The Blaster kart motor is being donated to the cause.

It isn't much, but here she is in all her glory the day we picked her up. Since this first set of pics, we have stripped it down to the frame. Progress pics will follow.

[djack12]

what!!! no more blaster cart? o are you going to rebuild the other motor for it. looks good.

 

[Blaster_Kart]

Blaster kart was rough on the kidneys... I have robbed the kart frame of all its blaster goodness. Alas, 'tis but a lowly Murray once again.

 

[djack12]

lol. that was a lot of work for 2 days of fun. i would have figured out a suspension set up for that thing. you put enough into it.

 

[blasterrider119]

ya dude that was a waste if you dont rebuild it

 

[Blaster_Kart]

Why was it a waste? I had fun figuring everything out, and the majority of the money for the project was put into the motor, rear, wheels and tries, all of which are going to the Blaster. No loss. It was a fun learning experience

Nice job man!
I blasted my own frame, What did you use for blasting yours, how long did it take you?
That color is nice too. Is that a candy?
