I just picked up what I'm told is a '60's Rupp Go Cart with the original seat cover that says Rupp Industries. It has the Clinton 4 stroke engine and seems to be complete for the most part. Any information on this would be appreciated. I have a picture I could email. Thanks! Jeff

Thanks, Magnumnforce. I would like to research it a little bit. It doesn't look like any I've seen so far in vintage photos. It has both a front and rear bumper.

Jeff,
Looking through my info......the closest to your kart is a 1967 F-35. The F-35 had a Tecumseh 3.5hp engine though. Maybe yours is a bit older because Rupp did use Clinton in their early years
The F-35 was known as a concessions kart....and sold to rental go kart tracks, hence the bumpers frt and rr.
A VERY cool find!
Your other info is coming via email
