$28.25 Junkyard Kart Build and Race!

[@CarsandCameras]

I've missed the budget builds!

[@Will-fr5du]

So have I!!!

[@starpuss]

Make More Budget Build!! "Maybe a Used Diesel Engine?" Too Bad your not in Canada, or i would send you one , But Shipping cost would cost more then the engine itself is worth.

[@ehrobot0568]

Me too!:)

[@seanclarkminikartgarage1616]

CarsandCameras hell yeahman same here

[@zulumagoo1]

"Well, there is no warranty or guarantee on anything" Enter priceless "so you're going to screw me, because YOUR parts don't match, off of YOUR parts cart???" Face.

[@jcraigfam1]

I'm never that lucky to find stuff that cheap to fix up like you guys do lol ... Keep up the good work guys

[@kadehinojos2598]

Yes, you just have to ask around i got a gokart for a carwash and a motor for free and a centrifugal clutch off of a mini bike for free and a free chain just ask around

[@davidb9896]

I can't even find a go-cart here that's partially complete (that some guy is not charging 200$ for)

[@recapmaster7312]

Jas u still got one of them

[@PKMartin]

You know what I want to see? An all projects head to head shootout, of everything you can get running: the cheap heap, the $50 kart, the rat rod wagon, minibikes and the CT70s. What gets the most bang for your buck (and more importantly, the most smiles for your buck)?

[@castin5244]

This exact go kart was the first go kart I ever drove when I was like 11. I thought it was the fastest thing ever.

[@motorman1873]

And then you graduated from a big wheel to a small bike with training wheels and your parents still called you a dumbass behind your back while you were riding.........

[@potatozamanco4550]

Casman how bout now?

[@joshbaldwin4336]

Castin how was the throttle rigged up

[@wyattcram4968]

@Sychronix no they don't sell them anymore they went out of bisnuis.

[@wyattcram4968]

@Sychronix you get them recked

[@youthfulcross4411]

Make a new series called cheap Tuesdays

[@DanBuilds]

Yes! I like it! Or Thrifty Thursdays ... =)

[@5-1-2ricers9]

Youthfulcross44 yes. Just yes.

[@justgrayyy105]

Youthfulcross44 it’s Tuesday May 14th, 2019 and I have PARCC testing RIP

[@motorman1873]

LOL good idea that way you can think of your mom every time you watch it

[@aidanlast8623]

Savvy Saturday

[@jasonclark6150]

RATROD WAGON!! PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING SACRED IN THE WORLD OF KARTING!!! it would be awesome to see it updated and pimped out. Motor swap proper seating... Man. The possibilities are endless. That thing is cool.. It deserves to be upgraded and take its place next to the ducati and the rail! Which is killer. Also give the rsil the ducati engine. Jus saying. You guys kick ass!!

[@northernredneck.9187]

Budget builds for life

[@jackallen6261]

Cheap builds rock! More cheap builds would be cool!

[@jaket923]

thanks to you guys I recently picked up a racing cart and I don’t regret it at all. can’t wait to start modifying it and because of your videos I feel like I know a decent amount about them. keep up the good work!

[@ZippoVarga]

Didn't see the front tire cost on the build, but that takes me back to your early budget builds. And yes, keep doing them! Cheers guys! Zip~

[@thegenerousdegenerate9395]

I was grinning like an idiot during the entire race part. You guys are absolutely right, the smiles per dollar can't be beat with something like this.

[@davidcookson4043]

I like having seen $50 go kart AND the cross kart. I am hoping to make an old homebrew frame into a slightly offroad gravel... Thing. Your and Taylor's $50 go kart AND the cross kart and trophy kart really inspire me on a cheap fun project!

[@dragonheart5316]

Not sure why people hate those Tecumseh powersport engines. Had one on my cart and owned it for a little under 10 years and didn't once have a problem with it.

[@lowslo9287]

Rukus Machine sameee

[@lakeshorerides]

Same here, had one since 98, we beat on that thing, but it runs just as good as new and still starts first pull.

[@zombiewarrior1290]

Same mine starts on one pull

[@Ohiocountryboy-se2cn]

Because i never had good luck with them. I like my briggs and Stratton engines

[@codykamminga9667]

Then you’ve been very lucky

[@ralphbenites1819]

It’s great to see go karts back on the road again.and guys finding them and fix them up.those zinc rims could use a deep cleaning and shine them up.thair worth saving.

[@apollosport2895]

Wow you guys have to do more of these

[@frankyalvarez7160]

I AM EARLY!!!!! Yes. I have a homade swamp buggy with a gator cart rear and a club cart front, custom chassis, 420cc predator. Let me know if you want to see a few pics of it. I got it for my 16th birthday, I have been wanting one for years and never had to opportunity to buy one. May 29 is my bday as I was wondering if you guys could give me some tips or parts to make it run better thanks a lot guys. P.s. I have been watching you guys for a couple years and have always been inspired by you and your builds have a nice day.

[@derrickquintal]

Watching you guys have this much fun hanging out and wrenching on these small engines honestly just makes me smile. Keep up the great videos and having fun guys!!!

[@joewilliams783]

Do more builds like this just a little more money. Fantastic build loved it

[@rickhurt7007]

You 2 have so much fun playing with junk. I'm in love with that Ducati cart! Love to see you win the lottery just to see what you build. If this channel gets 1 kid to build a go cart you have given then knowledge for a life time of fun.. Keep it up guys, I will keep watching.

[@dream2sea]

Rick Hurt Yes! Love it when folks post pictures of their inspired builds on FB.

[@rickhurt7007]

After 4 back operations my projects stopped. But I did store everything for my son that's now 16 and digging into them. Lol

[@dream2sea]

Rick Hurt Time for a side by side for dad with Good shocks, lol!!

[@rickhurt7007]

Lol no doubt.. But atm we both have TJ wranglers on 35's. Cops have already been to my house. Lol

[@ashtonwasson3788]

YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!!!

[@fan1701]

Excellent. I like these cheapies.

[@stevensgarage6451]

Cool project i love how you deducted the socket lol

[@jmachMega]

Very nice! Thumbs up to the budget builds. No tools no plans....

[@dream2sea]

jmachadom It’ll be fine!

[@BUILDNIGHT]

love low buck builds! cool to repurpose junk and make it work!

[@Lord_Verminaard]

It's always fun to watch junk run!

[@crchuckh6852]

28.25 plus the grippo from the trash can, love it, great video gentlemen.

[@davidtappe5337]

This was a good one, timing was perfect. You did this with hardly any tools and some sweat. Back to your roots. John I’m thinking you will probably be married and have kids before your truck is done. You’ve got my support though and I’m sending you some more bondo to help out. I’m thinking if it can’t be fixed or built with Go Power Sports parts it may not happen.

[@liamhill6546]

Small budget builds seem more fun as they are cheap and anything can be added, usual they are lighter aswell cos there isn’t owt expensive added on 😀

[@jaysonfullwood5592]

More budget builds!!

[@judahsears4463]

heck yeah! Love cheap builds, keep em coming, fellas. Praise the Lord, son!

[@motorman1873]

Trump 2020 !!!!!!!

[@bryanputz2076]

BUDGET BUILDS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME ....AND EVEN ENCOURAGED......"HOW TO DO MUCH WITH VERY LITTLE....:")

[@unvvj69]

Love this idea, I think a lot more people will be inspired to see you can build cool stuff without spending a lot.

[@johnkoelliker4381]

I had problems starting my 212 and after I wore out my arm I started using my cordless like you did. I always start them like this while tuning and/or working on them now !!!

[@everythingwithwheels4614]

I like cheap because it relates to me better!

[@frankyalvarez7160]

Ahahahaha! 😂

[@retrox684]

this channel is like the roadkill of go karts

[@MrJYII]

Love the name. The Cheap Heap!

[@markhendry1761]

Great channel guys! I like the cheap builds but also appreciate seeing you guys stretching yourselves like on the drag kart. I vote to keep doing both types of builds.

[@dream2sea]

Mark Hendry Well put! 👍🏻

[@randeladams8447]

I just did that same thing and came to a three dollar build. It's not bad. Have vice grips for a staring wheel lol and no floor board. But I like it. Thanks for the help and the fun from the videos. Keep them coming.

[@dream2sea]

Randel Adams Nice!!

[@lwlcgarage9943]

when you took the air box off the black cover has that little red flap in the winter you put it in the position so the heat from the engine on the fly wheel goes into the air box and in summer you put it in the other position so no heat gets in and thats why it runs so crappy in the hot weather

[@RoryRips]

Really?? Thats intesting lol.

[@bad1487]

Love the acceleration, that thing rockets off the line.

[@guitarnut06]

The eraser trick definitely seems like something I would do! Love it!

[@armedinbama]

Damn, that looks like great fun!

[@madmadmatt3908]

nothin like two big kids in a little go kart, keep em coming!

[@bgauweiler]

Love the budget builds...

[@Alfred..E..Neuman]

I love it when you wrench on and drive the mini cart and go bike!

[@ShaneAffsa]

Starting it the Project Farm way

[@bigfootandbananaman4746]

Shane Affsa I love that guy's videos

[@Zzeke]

Project Farm didn't invent that.... And I know I probably didn't either. But, I never heard of it before I tried it back in the early 90's when I took an old 3/8 socket extension and cut the female part off, and grinded it down to 1/4" to fit in an old corded drill we had. Had to duct tape the socket onto the extension. Old two stroke lawnmower, couldn't get a replacement recoil starter. I was about John's age then, I'm about double that now..... It's a great technique to clear the cobwebs out of a motor that hasn't run in a long time.

[@fillg]

4:16 Love that big ol grin. That's the look of success

[@justgrayyy105]

Is it me or is seeing an old go kart engine cranking up for the first time (in who knows how long) oddly satisfying?

[@jm9285]

More budget builds for sure.

[@letsdosomething4027]

This is my fav type of vid on the channel

[@caseynewland2614]

The classics are what we all miss!! Keep the rad video's comin!

[@deepbeeps]

We don't all have sponsors helping us afford parts. This type of thing is GREAT to see what cool things can be created with very little to begin with!

[@christophermcfarlandmcfarl1042]

More of these kinds of builds please. Very entertaining and informative.

[@FordRacingNation]

This is two funny! I finally found a go kart for a 100 bucks Canadian with the same engine on it. I had no idea what it was until we started watching this video. My son is 5 years old and watches you guys everyday. Time to put him to work and see if he learned anything from watching your show. Cheers!

[@nightmareinaction629]

FordRacingNation this is a nice hobby once you get into messing with the engines

[@lowslo9287]

FordRacingNation they're great motors

[@dream2sea]

Glad to know your snow has melted and you can work on stuff. We were still getting snow last month here!

[@georgesherpa]

I also missed the budget builds, its the reason i subed 3-4 years ago. Pleaaase keep doing easy newbie builds

[@richardroush6938]

Great video as always guys!

[@clintyoung9902]

Makes me think of the good ol times when y'all raced in the yard. Need to bring those vids back.

[@tigerback64]

I've made your intro my ringtone. I love the looks I get when I get a phone call!

[@FullSendPrecision]

I dont know why but I really enjoyed this one.

[@bigfootandbananaman4746]

Aaron Anderson I love the cheap go karts

[@JerryBeatFreak]

Man, you guys sure have some flashy jackstands ;)

[@PopcornBleach]

After years of searching i bought my go cart frame its a beast i'm going to restore it this summer Thanks for inspiring me

[@dream2sea]

PopcornBleach 👍🏻 Nice!!!

[@MatthewSmith193]

This video was pretty unexpected but IT WAS AWESOME. I love da budget build man!

[@Perry-ck1hv]

You can buy a new replacement carburetor on Amazon it's an after-market it's really a lot more adjustable than that piece of crap that's on there now they're only about 12 to $15 and if you have Prime you have it on your doorstep in 48 hours I know that's a little consequence for this show but in the future and he can CrossFit them over to Briggs and Stratton 4 more tunability on mini bikes go karts in that kind of s***and have guys have fun love the show.😎💣

[@michael7324]

I look forward to these videos. Love them. Thank you guys.

[@G56AG]

Tecumseh engines were decent engines, I have a lawn mower with a flat head 3.5 hp Tecumseh engine that I bought new about 30 years ago. I have a large yard and use a lawn tractor for the majority of the mowing and use the small mower as a trim mower. It is decently cared for and runs perfectly, usually starting on the first pull. I wouldn't call it a power house but they are a decent engine if cared for at all.

[@jacksonshelton8055]

I rode one of these yerf dog go karts yesterday, and it’s really fast! Being a small go kart with one wheel drive and a new carburetor. It belongs to my auto tech teacher. But man, that engine is small and somewhat terrifying in my opinion!

[@gearshiv]

That was hilarious more super glue and duct tape builds

[@TrackMania753]

This may be a very promising build

[@viktorwickman1990]

Aaaand my day just became a whole lot better

[@ScottGovey]

Awesome vids guys! I saw a pink lookin mabey a peddles boat where you scored the to gokarts, im sure its been brought up but didnt read the comments. I think you guys should score that for dirt cheap and revisit the amphibious build with that. Keep em coming!

[@harkin3684]

Please do more really cheap projects. Maybe a buildoff to see who can go fastest for $100?

[@SleepyGekkoZz]

You make it look fun and easy

[@philtripe]

build a jon boat with a predator motor running an old lower unit or paddle maybe

[@janeames1513]

a lot of gator boats in the swamps run that style..maybe a 22 horse kohler or something but i have seen them on swamp people show

[@gardeningoutdoors5209]

one of the plastic peddle boats with a 670.... oh yeah

[@SchuylerDeanPickups]

You guys are in your element here, one of the best videos yet!

[@Dogman36]

yall should build this one up and take it to the dirt oval!

[@robertjames7869]

Love the budget build. NOW... hop it up with a predator 212, no other changes, then rematch race, same 2 laps and course.

[@redneckit429]

I love watching you guys 100%. about 3 months ago I bought a motor kit to put on a bike and started working on it and constantly had to fix or tighten something. I kept watching your videos and was going to go buy some parts like a new carb and head...sadly the bike and motor got stolen...now I have a 2000 mustang I work on and love thanks to your videos😁. I still look on the web for a small gokart project with a side mounted motor but all of them are like 1000k...where do you find them so cheap???anyway love the videos keep it up👍.

[@TrojanHorse1959]

Great video guys! Tecumsehs are junk when they are brand new, so you guys worked a true miracle getting that one to run at all.

[@crankysports]

I have used nylon caps, like from a can of bondo from walmart, and a hole punch to make seats for carbs before. Worked pretty good in a lawnmower

[@RamonAlmodovar]

that was fun . more sheeeppp stuff . kepp the good work

[@christophereng815]

I would like to see more budget/ low cost go carts.

[@Tactical_Pterodactyl_Knives]

I've been binge watching your videos for the last 2 days and I can't get enough. Where do you look to find these old karts? I want to build one but want to start cheap like on this video.

[@Bikeliferobbb]

You guys are awesome i wish i could find one of those in palm beach

[@lowslo9287]

I love tecumseh motors i had one and it ripped same motor mine was a 6 1/2 also had to do minor maintance and its like 10 years old now 😂😂

[@TheRoss527]

i like this better than expensive builds for sure. i have no garage and no money for a 670... keep these comin for inspiration for my broke ass

[@codykirkland6399]

I have the same kart and it’s fun to ride around.

[@lawnmowerdude]

I’ve enjoyed this one quite a lot. Much more interesting then just popping a predator on there.

[@Boemel]

Been looking for years for a cheap kart man u guys get lucky all the time.

[@orioncgaming720]

Hey guys! I have a request. Can you guys show us how to make a Go Kart out of things you can buy at your common “Home Depot” or “Lows” store (or your local equivalent), from research and design to purchasing materials and building it, all the way to synthetic numbers to real performance, as well as a comparison and possible “upgrades” (really just better parts, but you understand what I mean). The main thing I’m asking is for you guys to build the frame and make it work for cheap, although I understand that you would more than likely have to use most of your industrial grade equipment such as welders and stuff to make most of the parts work together. Thanks! ~TL;DR They should make a go kart from only things they can buy at their local hardware store!

[@muddy_armadillo]

MAKE A BUDGET BUILD MUD MOWER!!! WOULD ONLY COST LIKE $80!

[@motorman1873]

Heck yeah give them your parents food stamp card number and let them have at it!!!!!!!!.

[@brianwalton373]

Love all of ur videos i think the budget builds r so much more fun but everything y'all do is always awesome n fun

[@Camerons16]

I like these kind of videos.. more of the working.. I like seeing how you guys get things done!

[@bryanworth8292]

You guys crack me up ! My wife laughed at one of your videos (I think I'll go looking for a go cart and put her on it ) . Keep it up .

[@andrestouten8483]

Go on like this illike it very much!

[@davidcluck6649]

Love it on the cheap!

[@jonathankirchhofer1130]

Great video

[@ThatOneGuy077]

I think the wagon should return.

[@deltafactory]

+CarsandCameras, if you guys have dirty carbs and other used parts that could be returned to service after some elbow grease/restoration work, I'd be happy to help.

[@SleepyGekkoZz]

You guys are inspiring me to be a mechanic

[@jtaaronchristensen2760]

i thought that this wad very fun and a cool concept, cant esit to see whats next.
