NOTE: This windshield frame (front top support) could be retrofitted to older cars than the ’86 model. The top dimensions did not change they stayed 42” wide x 54” long. The wider frame required a wider windshield. The factory windshield frame was still made from ¾” square tubular steel, painted black. The support legs were bolted to the OUTSIDE of the front cowl (see picture) rather than to the TOP of the cowl as in the 80-85 models. Most notable was the widening of the windshield support legs and the way they attached to the car. Several important changes occurred in 1986. The E-Z-GO golf car changed a lot in the years 1986 through 1994. Other changes were made to the gas engine and to the brake system. The gasoline engine changed from an internal (inside the engine) to an external Hitachi starter generator. They still made 3 & 4 wheeled cars and the electric stayed pretty much the same. The seat back/bag rack support bracket was changed and it helped to support the rear top.
The old leaf spring that extended from wheel to wheel went away. The 4 wheel front suspension was changed to a solid tubular axle with built-in kingpins and short front to rear leaf springs. This is important if you wish to buy a windshield or rain curtain for this model. NOTE: The front support legs bolt onto the TOP of the front cowl. The front legs were required as the top could not hold itself up from the rear ‘X’-Leg any longer. The top support posts went from round to 1″ square in the rear and 3/4″ square in the front. Key among them was the ‘X’-Leg top was discontinued and the new top was lengthened to 54″ (from 48″). In 1980 E-Z-GO had several changes to the basic car. Prior to ’74 a 36- volt electric drive train was all that was made. In 1974 a gasoline 2 cycle engine was introduced. The basic design of this car was also offered in a 4 wheel version with the same top. This top had a brittle ABS plastic insert that is no longer available. This top design was common on some early Melex golf cars and I have seen it on other cars too. The early models had a single post in the front and later on, as windshields became more common, 2 round posts supported the front of the top and the windshield attached to them. It could support itself from the rear ‘X’ legs only. The top is characterized by the round steel posts, painted black, and the rear legs form an ‘X’ when viewed from the side. Pictured is the ‘Classic’ E-Z-GO 3 wheel golf car with the factory made 48″ long x 42″ wide ‘X’-Leg top. We’re not really sure exactly when this body style and top debuted. It was taken at the 1999 PGA Show in Orlando, FL.Īlso pictured here is an early E-Z-GO Model 400 taken at the Augusta, GA E-Z-GO Branch Office. Pictured here is a restored version of the original electric golf car produced in 1954. They started in a small machine shop and today E-Z-Go is one of the leading golf car manufacturing companies in the world. was founded in 1954 by two brothers, Beverly and Billie Dolan, in Augusta, GA.

This section is always under construction, so feel free to email any pictures or information about your E-Z-GO.Į-Z-GO Golf Car Co. If you have any questions regarding the year and model of your E-Z-GO, please give us a call. They no longer included the manufacturer’s code, and instead of a plate inside the passenger’s side dash compartment, they simply apply a sticker under the choke plate (on gas carts) or under the charger receptacle (electric carts). In the mid-2000’s, E-Z-GO changed the format and location of their vehicle information. Please include all the letters and numbers found in these locations when ordering any parts. The date determination on these early models is somewhat mysterious so tell us the numbers and we’ll help decipher them.

Prior to ’76 the SN plate was under the driver’s side seat, just behind the most driver side battery, on the fender skirt.
#EZ GO WORKHORSE SERIAL NUMBER#
The actual Serial Number is either 6 or 7 numbers (only) and it does not indicate the model year.
#EZ GO WORKHORSE CODE#
The specific order of the numbers changes over the years but the Code always has a letter and the last two (2) digits of the year it was made incorporated in the overall series of numbers. Most modern (76-present) E-Z-GO cars have their Serial Number & Manufactures Code in or under the passenger side dash board looking toward the center of the car. This can be done by finding the Serial Number and the Manufactures Code. It is a good idea if you own an E-Z-GO to identify the model and year of manufacture.
From the beginning there have been various models with different top & windshield styles making identification sometimes confusing. E-Z-GO has been making golf cars since 1954. EZGO takes a prominent spot in our Golf Cart Museum.
