    Back when the Shelby American Automobile Club magazine was printed small size (wasn't it the Marque?) they had a story on a convention where guys were buzzing around in these go karts with miniature 427 Cobra bodies. I expected that I would see these dealies later on but never saw them again.
    I would like to buy one since I can't afford a real Cobra.
    Anybody got a line on one? It doesn't have to run, I would just use it for display, maybe have it detailed to look as much like a full size Cobra as possible. Don't have dimensions but they were big enough for a full size adult to get in and drive.

    WOW, very cool, but I know it has to be expensive. I think the Go Cart he was refering to was a Basic Go Cart with the Brigs & Stratin Engine in the Rear. I have seen these pop up on Ebay once in a while and usuall go for around $1,800.00.
