Default New and Father-Son project

New member, first Father and Son build.
I took the opportunity to start this built when my boy asked for a gokart as a birthday gift.

I paid $200 for a non working complete helix 150cc. Frame work does need a lot TLC. I could of paid less but was too excited when I saw my boys face when he saw the helix.

Build Goals are nothing fancy and pretty simple. Total $600 budget (Including price paid for the helix)

Restore frame ... (Weld were needed and paint with POR15)
GY6 rebuilt.
Polish heads
ported intake
muffler
air intake/ram air setup
Add Tach and RPM gage.
Tune the carb with an a/f gage
Bucket seats

I need to figure out how to control the max speed. My boy is only 7 so I don't need him going highway speeds on the yard.
