Thanks Peter & Richard, I appreciate the welcoming!

With a screen name like skintkarter, does that have any connection to these sorts of karts?

This one is a 1961 era McCulloch R1 go-kart chassis & (originally designed for chainsaw) engines. When I can get the problematic carbs working right, it's pretty stimulating to drive! There's quite a following of vintage karts here in The States, and I will concede that this is my one true mid-life crisis!



The most recent panel I shaped, was a cowl for the R1 above; these are most often referred to as a Nassau Panel (or simply number plate). I don't have it painted and fitted yet, but I'll try to get a completed picture of that soon. Just a simple little bench-top English wheel project.
