Golfcart Build

[chpthril]

Getting things rolling on a cart build for a buddy of mine. I know a few here have carts and have done some mods to them. Any recommended parts sources?

Thanks,

Here's one I built for my girls (probably not what your buddy is looking for image.jpgI get some pretty odd looks when I drive it It's pretty basic stuff: wrap, wheel inserts, removed the top, used the front top mounts for my lights, recovered the seats, added flip down rear seat, built a box to house three speakers and head unit and places between front/rear seat, finished it off with some crystals. The girls love it.

jmoore,

thats not too far off to be honest!
We are looking at doing a flowery wrap with the farm's logo worked in some how.
New vinyl on the cushions
paint or dye the top or replace if its not too expensive. Want to get away from the original tan top
4" lift and new tires/wheels
winch and front pumper
Add some extra storage

its a 98 Club car 48V and totally stock at this point. Looking to a simple spindle lift with a small increase in wheel and tire size to give it some added ground clearance. Not looking to make a sand buggy type cart out of it, just make it better to drive around the farm. Its got the 8" wheels and 18" tires, what would recommend? Looking at a 4" lift and maybe like a 20" tire/ Dont want to kill the final drive too much.

CHP, if your going to wrap it you might consider wrapping the top as well. Maybe put the farm brand on it??

[chpthril]

Hadnt thought about wrapping it. Its got a ton of irregular angles though.

[jmoore15]

Just don't be afraid to heat the wrap and stretch it. It confirms pretty good if you stretch it.

[chpthril]

What ever wrap we do will be applied by the designer/printer, not me

[jmoore15]

The next one I do will be done the same way! One is enough.

Well, she's torn down! Just waiting on a bunch of build parts and trying to decide what to do with the body. Fix and paint, fix and wrap, or replace with a new one. problem with a new one, is the color my buddy's wife wants, will not be available untill the end of Oct.

[chpthril]

UPS just delivered!
