    Description

    This listing is for a group of three small un-motorized go-karts that I found at the Billings Montana car swap meet recently. These little jewels were used on a carnival ride for many years and are only about 2/3 of the size of a typical go kart from the 1960's.
    I am away from home for the next couple of days but will add dimensions of them as soon as I get back home. They have a ________ wheelbase and are only ______ inches wide and ______ inches long overall. They measure _______ approximately inches tall to the top of the seats and _______ inches tall to the top of the steering wheels.
    These tiny beauties never had any engines, functional steering or any brakes at all. The front axles are rigid and do NOT steer at all. The steering wheels spin freely in either direction. The front of these vehicles were pulled by the foot long steel strap around in a circle on a platform on a merry-go-round type of carnival ride.
    This little beauties would look right at home in any go-kart, pedal car, or circus or carnivl ride collection. One could display thm with a dolls dressed up as a child drivers. They could also be a real attention getter as a sign displayed outside on the top of a tall fence, pole, or building. The possiblilites here are truly limitless.
    The rear wheels are about _____ inches in diameter while the smaller front wheels are only about ______ inches in diameter.
    The frame was made by arc welding steel tubing together. This little gem likely traveled many thousands of miles during it's uselfull life. Consequently, it has some weld repairs that were not likely done by a profesisonal welder but most likely done in the middle of the night by a carnival maintenance man.
    All three of these karts are in very similar condition. The plastic front wheels on one are broken. All of them have been painted several times to make them look as nice as possible many years ago.
    There is a very good chance I may be able to acquire one or more of these very special karts in the next few days. I will make changes to this listing if I am fortunate enough to get any more of them. If you are interested in one or two of these little beauties, I will consider splitting up this group.
    I listed this group as being for "Local Pickup Only" to keep this listing simple but I do have some shipping and delivery options. I have plenty of secure and free indoor storage here in beautiful Montana if you or a friend are planning a trip here in the next year or two. I can store it in the attic of my large warehouse here in Bozeman Montana.
    This group would be difficult to ship using UPS or FedEx ground services but I might be able to using three separate packages. I may be able to strap them to a pallet and ship them using Fastenal Freight services. I can ship to a freight forwarder in California where it can be included as a partial shipment in large sea-going container shipping to any country in the world.
    I have a lot of friends that travel thorughout the USA and Canads this time of year. One of them may be able to safely and economically deliver on or more of these to you depending on where you live and how soon you need or want them.
    Thanks a lot, Bob Woodburn in Bozeman Montana USA     4O6-799-I847
