The last post described Randy and I struggling with the clutch. Finally, at the last moment it was fixed.
Ann gave me a small sack with more of Dad's karting items. Here are some pix of those items:
 |
Dad's stop watch. I can't think of many items that go back as far in my memories. |
 |
This was gift to Dad a few years ago. It is about 4" long and comes with a "air gun" for changing out parts and tires. |
 |
This is the envelope with all the items below. |
 |
Receipt for a carb and clutch shoes -- this carb goes for $10-$15 today on ebay |
These items apparently came with a clutch shoes that was sent from Chicago.
 |
Page of owners manual |
 |
Parts illustration with more detail than the one I already have. This confirmed that there needs to be a spacer placed on the crank. It is part 1012, top center |
 |
Parts list and PRICING on back of parts illustration. |
 |
Installation instructions with lots of good info. |
This is a hand-written note from "someone" a the shop where the carb and clutch shoes came from. There are eleven pages, all with wonderful and needed instructions. I have not shown the letterhead for a particular reasons.
 |
Just a sample page with instructions on how to mix alcohol fuel. |
 |
Point-by-point instructions for installing clutch. I started laughing when I saw this. Really could have used this on the last two work days! But it does confirm what we figured out. |
These items were in another envelope from G.E.M. Products. They are still around.
 |
Kart tie-tack |
Nice work documenting the freshening up of the kart
