well thats good news si, i missed your call earlier so will keep trying to get through, as for converting i'm sure we can help you out there as that last one that was broken had full disc conversion which is sitting here if you want it. As for the wheels i can't get a hold of the guy yet but will keep trying.

If you plan on using her regularly I'd suggest exactly the upgrades you suggested. It's all swappable and bolt on, so if you change your mind later then you can take her back to original. If you go to disks get the servo as well.

Against that she must be pretty early (chassis no.?) so keeping her original would be important if you plan on shows with proper judging. Having said that most judges don't know their a**e from their elbow, except on their own marque.

hi si, at the end of the day a club car will never be judged at any show unless it is entered as an individual entry, and even at that if you don't have a jag or a mg your screwed. Some people shouldn't even be judging, ie how can afully restored car beat a car that it is totally oiginal ? that happened about 5 years ago at moffat, it was a disgrace.
