I'm going to guess it's an Italsistem chassis Nevermind, Italsistem only made engines. http://www.italsistem.com/storia-eng.htm

If you take a look at the rear crossbar under the seat, there should be a homologation plate on there with some numbers. If you could get a pic of that, someone could give you better info on the chassis. _________________ T.J. Koyen

I couldn't find anything on the frame at all. The only numbers I could find are on the front and side bumpers.....19/CA/08.
TonyKart is engraved on the gas/brake pedals but this name is engraved on the floorpan, bumpers and on the steering wheel,

Italcorse. Look at the link I posted above. Looks like italsistem motors started the italcorse line of chassis in 97.
Any marks on the brake master cylinder, brake caliper, rear axle bearings? |

Its an ItalCorse It- series chassis. If it is all 32mm tubing its an IT-13
These were built by Achille Parilla to go along with his ItalSistem engines. _________________ Brian McHattie

Thanks guys!
Hopefully didn't bite off more than I can chew with this thing!
Needs a bit of work as it was sitting for a few years.
Spent all night pulling the brakes apart after trying to bleed them only to find the cup seals leaking due to the inside being all corroded. Little steel wool=good as new.
Needs a starter batt.
Need to replace the water pump O-rings,thinking silicone?
New batts in the Mycron, some fresh 100ll/castor927 and hopefully test her out next week!!
Thanks again guys!!!
Brian, looks like its 30mm measured across the tubes... |
