Hey that Vett's pretty cool there TurtleMann.
I found a few others for sale in this search link: http://www.google.com/search?q=go+k...&rls=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox&ie=&oe=

The edge products sells them for around $500. They have a VW beetle one and a GMC truck one, their in Australia though.

If I was you I'd make a mould out of the one you've got and then sell them from that. Quick easy money!

wouldn't be that hard really, i am not sure i could handle the fumes for that long though

is there any kind of identifying marks on it? the way that body rolls under at the front and back may mean someone important owned or built it. making copies can get you sued, so do some more homework and see if you can figure out who made it and who it was made for. hey do they have a knightrider body, kidding. it looks like good quality work, i would leave it as is but with say a blanket around it and in a crate until you get some good info on it.

Turtle- where did you get that? Looks like its been in that barn for a long time. why not keep it and rebuild the whole deal? looks like a drag racer with those skinny front tires.

Put a bike engine on that...even if you had to modify the fiberglass a little to squeeze it in, I think the original builder would be cool with it just as long as its not a hack job (coming from a past hacker myself)....or just see it to me frame and all for a 200 bucks

nope

i would love to put a bike engine in it on a different frame(i just sat the body on that one) and make it like an old muscle car (engine would probably have to be a v twin)

from what i remember it was a Shriner car that was a bit to long to fit into formation we bought the whole gokart for 500 when i was about 5 i think

the frame that is under it in the photos i picked up for 20
