Default How much can I get for my C1 Manco Go Kart?

My Manco Go Kart with a replica 58-60 Corvette body is scheduled to go on ebay tomorrow night at 7pm CDT. I had the body restored and painted 57 Venetian Red with Shoreline Beige coves to match my 57 vette. The body is outstanding, but the kart needs a little work. Let me know what you guys think I can expect to get. I'm starting the auction at $999.00.

Thxs bud. would appreciate your input. It is my understanding that a 61 replica went for $7,500.00 at Mecum Chicago in Oct. last year.

That's pretty cool...

Everything works, it goes and stops? What's the top speed?

It was in storage for approx. 10 years. Fuel system will need work. Will need at least 2 new tires. It was blast when i rode in it. Top speed I'm guessing 25 to 30 miles an hour. It doesn't have a speedo.

Rear engine too! Better not let the C-7 forum see this they might have a break down finding out that a rear engine platform Corvette already exist!

Hell - that looks better than 1/2 the full-size cars for sale I've seen on the various web sites !

I know of a person building a C1 restomod that color for a guy; I wonder if the owner would want this puppy ?
