Some sort of a time/travel USPS record - W/M Kart

This one made all the connections, seller shipped prompty, priority mail, USPS hit the transfer spots. I just bought this thing.
Not well packed, Kart the same size as the box and provided it's own packing. Lucky that it got here intact with only a foot rest out of it's base. Fuel tank nipple broken off in the tubing like 90% of the Wen's that I have received. Engine locked tight sinking my idea of running it out of the box. It's going to need a new O ring drive. Nipple an easy fix.
It's going to sit. Started this morning on my third burn pile.

Bob, couldn't help but noticed your utility knife on the top of box in your 3rd photo. Have one somewhere, was my Dad's in high school, late 1960's, same color. Still works like a charm.

Thanks George, I put it there for perspective, gives an idea of the size of the Kart. The Kart is quite large and dwarfs the engine which appears quite small in comparison.
I have several box cutters and use them frequently. Love/hate relationship for them as they were used in ther horrifying 9-11 high-jackings.
