This go-kart was designed to resemble a Shelby Cobra, with the fiberglass bodywork reportedly constructed in the 1960s. It was purchased by the seller in 2023 and subsequently refurbished, with the body repainted blue before being fitted over a custom black tubular steel frame. It is powered by a 440cc DuroMax OHV single linked to a centrifugal clutch and a drive chain. Equipment includes a seat with faux-ostrich upholstery, 10″ alloy wheels, disc brakes, a plexiglass windscreen, faux dual side pipes, a flip-up fuel cap, front and rear lights, opening hood and trunk lids, a speedometer and tachometer, an electric starter, and a three-spoke steering wheel. This Cobra-style go-kart is now offered at no reserve in Blaine, Washington, on a bill of sale.
The fiberglass bodywork is said to have been stripped with work performed to repair cracks and scratches before being refinished in blue. Additional features include a plexiglass windscreen with a chrome surround, a flip-up fuel cap, opening hood and trunk lids, faux dual side pipes, a faux hood scoop, and head and taillights. The car measures approximately 84″ long, 38” wide, and 24” to the top of the windshield. The wheelbase is 48”, and the car weighs about 250 pounds.
The 10″ chrome-polished multi-spoke alloy wheels are mounted with 205/30 Qing Da tires. The kart is equipped with rack-and-pinion steering with an adjustable shaft and tie rods, while braking is by dual cross-drilled disc brakes mounted on the rear axle. A Wilwood brake pedal adjuster and master cylinder are fitted along with braided steel brake lines.
The cockpit is fitted with a single seat trimmed in faux-ostrich upholstery with matching side panels and black carpeting. The twin foot pedals are finished in black and have machined grips.
The black-rimmed three-spoke steering wheel fronts a painted dash with speedometer and tachometer gauges, a starter key, and a pull and rocker switches. The digital odometer reads zero.
The 440cc DuroMax OHV single is factory rated at 18 horsepower and is linked to a centrifugal clutch and a drive chain. An aluminum fuel tank is positioned ahead of the engine. The seller notes the governor has been removed and that a 38mm flat-slide carburetor is fitted, with photos in the gallery showing air filters also fitted.
The black-finished 1″ tubular steel frame was fabricated under current ownership, and photos of the build are also provided in the gallery.
