The British Historic Kart Club

Hi All

I have today collected a ZIP SILVERSTONE yes the one that was on e-bay recently, So now begins a restoration programe,Photos to follow It is missing some parts so if anyone has some spares lurking in the back of their workshop please do let me know what you have available

Hi Brian

I think we met briefly at the RaceRetro show and chatted about Historic Karting. Glad to see you have a project underway. If you start a restoration blog under the 'show your kart thred' and post some photos you will probably get lots of advice and offers of parts.

I've just finished restoring a Zip Silverstone 72 very similar to yours although I have a Bultaco engine installed (thred in show your kart). I think you have mounts for a Villiers? Are you going to fit a Villiers engine? There are a few about although you my need a crowbar to prise them out of some of the members sheds!

Come along to Donnington as there will be a big turnout and sure to be some Silverstone's - and we are sharing the Melbourne Loop with the Rally boys!
