REMEMBER what it was like, being a young kid? The joy is palpable.

3 grown men..er i mean big kids on a wicked mini corvette with dual exhausts , fabulous sunday entertainment, thankyou so much!

Nothing better than seeing a bunch of grown men having a blast on a go cart... The smile on each of your faces makes this video totally worth watching... Love it...

70 year old couple ere sat sipping dram and laughing our bits off watching this absolute classic here in NW France. May the gods continue to shine down on you Mustie for bringing us so much happiness and laughter.

Darren’s little laugh always makes me smile . We get the feeling we’re doing the work .

"12 year olds with gray hair" LOVE it! I just turned 60. Grew up with Rupp minibikes and carts. We had a dealer in our town.

Coolest thing ever, the inner child is so impressed with that cart.

The giggles when you are driving it…just the best!

Nice to see other good people who havnt grown up .....never change !!

The joy that Mustie finds in life is all of his own making. Thanks, as always!

Bunch of old men playing like kids!! I love it and I’m totally jealous.

You don’t stop playing because you get old , you get old because you stop playing, fantastic toy well done from a 59 year old boy 😀👏👏😀

To the little Kid in all of us. Great video !

I'm guessing she's gonna need tires pretty soon too! Another great adventure Mustie, Happy Mother's Day to all our moms

When your friend entered the fray, it was like a sausage trying to get back into the casing. Loved it. Narragansett Bay

Who needs the Northern Lights when Mustie provides us Open Exhaust lights! Happy Sunday all! And Happy Moms day to any watching

What a turn around, saved it for more years of fun

Im 71, and I love this project.super cool. Thanks. Happy Mother's Day.

Your idea for the exhaust is fabulous. Thanks.

As a 12 year old with graying hair I totally agree it should be Mach 5'd. That looks like crazy amounts of fun, it's way faster than any go kart I've seen. And Mustie being a bad influence on his friends will never stop being hilarious.

My wife just said boys with their toys lol,it looks like a blast to drive ,quick too ,looks fantastic and the exhaust just finishes it off ,great work Mustie once again 👍👍

I think that is the best looking machine so far. It' got styles..

Was definitely not expecting the pickup on that thing! Drifts, power skids and everything! Great job!

There’s nothing better than seeing several “men” of a certain age giggling away and playing with toys 😁👍😊

Saw my first little car in 1960, that has always been a dream of mine. Thanks for sharing.

Hard to imagine today's kids having as much fun as yesterday's kids as we see here.

Kids don't grow up,,,,,They just get older. I was laughing right there with you. Many Thanks!

I envy you Mustie. You can still do what I am unable to do because of my old age and bad health. I enjoy living vicariously through you.

12 yr olds with grey hair, gotta love it, stay young at heart and youll live forever, keep the great content coming mustie, im 43 bald with grey beard lol, im a single father of 3 boys, 24, 19, and 17 matter of fact today is my middle sons 19th bday my oldest turned 24 on the 7th, i grew up on dirtbikes and karts my boys grew on dirtbikes and karts, no matter how old u get the smiles nvr stop coming when you and your kids and friends and family spend the day ripping on whatever ya got!!

66 year old me is jealous! That looks like fun. I actually have the "full size" version of this, a 69 red Corvette convertible. 👍👍

Just what I needed to put a smile on my face on this Mother's Day. A sure mood elevator with no unpleasant after effects.👍

What a hoot! I'll bet you couldn't wipe the smile off of anyone who gets to drive it!

Well done, I honestly think you are going to need a flex joint in that exhaust it will fatigue over time and probably pull the exhaust studs out of the engine as you can see the engine moving around and the exhaust id solid mounted.

Nothing vicariously better than seeing Mustie try out his toys...

What a way to step back in time and take the rest of us with you. Thanks Mustie

"What is that, 10 mm? 12? How about a needle nosed wisegrip?" Love it ! :)

beautiful go cart, but that black rag top Ghia is the most beautiful car I have ever seen. love it.

Good morning, Mustie! Wow! What a fun video😃! Someone is going to have LOTS of fun with that🏎. It just goes to show, you're always a kid at heart and will always enjoy the simpler things that we all loved when we were younger🧒. Thanks so much for the ride along! Enjoy the rest of the weekend! God bless.

Just spit my beer out when you pulled the burnout. It was worth the effort. Thank you for sharing your wonderful video.

As a fellow gray headed 12 year old, I know that if I were a kid and was given this as a 12 year old, within @ 30 minutes I would have wanted a more powerful engine and more speed. I also would have wanted a custom exhaust with twin tailpipes and knew I'd have the coolest go cart around. And yes, every time Mustie chuckles, I smile. Great restore and upgrade.

Loved every minute of this project. You make all us aging middle aged folk feel young again

great job and now this is why i watch your video's makes me want to get one just for the fun of it. Nothing wrong with being a kid again after 50's lol keep it up bud.

That handle bar exhaust would look so dope!!! I love it!

Turning off all the lights to see flames shoot out of the open exhaust is so juvenile. I LOVE IT!

I would love to see that thing on a go kart track!

I love Sunday mornings, I get to watch mustie do the things I want to do but cannot anymore, thank you and keep em comin

I said it before and I'll say it again: " you come up with the best toys!" Tks for sharing!

Nothing better than a Mustie giggle!

I don't know what it is, but I see all sorts of people on KZfaq with souped up sports cars, supercars and various exotics...but the people driving what is essentially a glorified go-cart are the ones having the most fun driving it!

Probably one of the coolest you’ve done. That thing is a 6HP grin maker!

Every time I see one of these projects I fully expect his next to be filmed in a full body cast.

The beavis and butthead laugh's are when you know it's a really fun toy! Awesome!!!.

Hey Mustie, just a thought but there is a 3rd party company that makes an electric start kit for these little 212 cc predator engines, got one for my tiller, works pretty good. Its around $130 if i remember correctly, would eliminate the need for the pull start!

Good afternoon fellow Mustie1 fans everywhere, from sunny 😎 Lincolnshire, UK 🇬🇧

nice fabbin'....that was close with the left quarter panel in the shop haha....

So many big kids. Its amazing what can bring a bunch of grown men so much pleasure.

What a great finish!!! You always amaze us with what you can do with a few good parts and pieces. The exhaust was perfect. You should be the Pace Car for some upcoming race or event.

Hi I'm 77 this month I'd happily spend on a flight from Scotland just to have a rip on this cool machine. If you fit a hinge at the nose and catches on the rear you will be able to have a quick way into the workings of this awsome machine for all round maintenence.

Thankfully, you can never take the boy out of the man. That baby is awesome!!!

Musty this was one of the best videos I ever watched I'm 68 and it brings back memories Houston building mini bikes and had two go-karts at my uncle's

if the problem turns out to be fuel slosh in the bowl, one of our karting tricks is to use some fuel tolerant foam cut to fit in the bowl and not mess with the float. The foam slows down the slosh. In my 6 speed shifter kart I use what we call a "pump-around" system which uses a second impulse fuel pump and a epoxied tube to extract excess fuel and put it back in the tank along with the foam to control sloshing. The float, needle and needle seat are removed completely and the fuel level is set by the tube epoxied from the top of the bowl. Perfect fuel level at all times and eliminates tip in bog when you apex and sends you on the way.

Having played with building karts back in my navy apprenticeship days in the late 1970's, and sticking a 200cc motorbike engine on the arse end- I know exactly how you guys felt driving that- The grin on ones face lasts for days. It is an experience everyone shoud try. You did good Mustie1 - Top Marks Darren! one of your best in recent times!

That little thing is awesome with that engine in it. Great innovations to get it there, the exhaust, the pull start mods. Glad you were firm on not cutting the body and making it work. Great work!

I’m all smiles from that demo at the end. Crazy fun!

What a great sound to go with the performance. Great job Mustie

The Pink Panther car keeps coming to my head when i see this.

With friends like yours you will never age!!!

I cant stop seeing Stewart little the mouse when you guys are driveing this thing😂

So, the whole neighbourhood turned up to try it... Good job, Mustie.

Love these go kart videos- smiling through the entire view! You’re the best - thanks for sharing these!

Large children with little toys...too much fun! Congratulations...Mustie , you started a project and almost completed one. To fix the sharp turn cut off problem, it will be completed.

Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. A channel for grown-ups who are still kids at heart, what's not to like.

Mustie 1, "Lets Wrench". God Bless

Time to chill with Mustie,thx as always

The kid is still inside you all, brilliant.

Speed Racer Mark 5! I love the cackle it makes off-throttle, that's a real sports car exhaust sound.

Good morning,eh, from Montreal,Canada….a dark morning here but no rain…..yet. 👍🇨🇦

To all the naysayers screaming "sacrilege" and keep it as "original" (or close enough with one of the other "shed" engines) as possible. That's right. He does have all those spares. But you don't. You have a credit card and a Harbor Freight discount app on your phone. This will get him views. And as someone who's been here since a little before the trike, please let the man cook? I'll just step off my soap box and go away now.

Nothing better than grown men driving a lil go cart. That thing is quick

years ago, I built a dune buggy with that heat tape on the exhaust. Turns out a heat shield was the way to drop that temp by a bunch. The exhaust was heating my butt right through the floorboards.... and it made a BIG difference. BTW, thanks for the laughs here!

I came home from school when I was about 6 and the first place I went to was behind a shed to do my business. I saw my first buggy made by one of my Dad's employees. It was made from a radio flyer red wagon, same wheels , the steering wheel was made from another axle and red wagon wheel. It steered well enough for me. Looked like a small version of a model A. I was a proud driver even though it was pedal driven. That was in early 1950s. A great video. I loved it

that's the sickest go-kart i ever seen...

Great job! Looks fast sitting still. The paint came back pretty nice, awesome!

smiles all around, awesome, that would be sooo much fun... build 2 more for your buddies and set up a track.

We are all still kids, we all need toys! That thing is bad ass, nice work!!

Daren, you’re going to be a hit at the next car show 👍🇺🇸

I'm 64 going in 14! Maybe some day you will get a 3D printer for those custom intakes, but for now, you did a fabulous job retrofitting that intake! Nice Job!

Out of the Park, Mr. Darren!! Beautiful and everything fits just right. You made a good call on the bicycle-handlebar exhaust, motor looks nice in there, not whittled in. Personally I'd leave the paint refurbished Red that you got it with. Maybe a bat-switch bypass on the low-oil setup, to keep the functionality but also allow the fun.

It’s scary how well you fit in that thing. Like someone made it for you😌👌

Hey mustie. I just wanted to say thankyou so much. I've been so interested in the world of mechanics for a very long time. Yourself and a couple other youtubers have given me the confidence to chase what i love so. I've been tinkering wherever i go. And always seem to have the right tool at the right time. Well thanks to you i have an interview this week in a mechanics apprenticeship and i really do hope I'm accepted. So a huge thanks again mustie for giving me the confidence to tinker on thing's and chase what i love so. Have a nice day!

Day late but im here boys!! We used to run go karts where we grew up in a suburb of Minneapolis MN. Cops would always just wave at us and never messed wit us kids.

Thanks for the shop time Mustie1! What a cool project!

Awesome, Awesome, Awesome. The colour scheme you have in mind would be perfect for this. You may as well complete your dream. So thanks for taking me along on this build. ✌️ Peace from Melbourne Australia.

Omg that thing is cool. If only I could’ve had it 45 years ago!

Oh the younger days coming back to memory now. Remembering taking my friends freshly rebuilt YZ80 into his neighbors fence, ahhhhh the memories

She's a runner! Nice Job.

Handlebars are defunked because little Joey kept falling off his bicycle. Brother in law of mine had a go cart we used to race around the neighborhood in. Man that was fun even when it breaks or runs out of fuel and had to push it back to his house. You make Sunday videos always interesting and educational.

I think everyone needs one... old guys dreams come true....

Watching you guys drive the go-cart reminds me of seeing the Shinners in the Christmas parade! What fun!

Thanks for another good one Mr. Mustie! That go-cart looks like a lot of fun! Glad to see it out running around again!
