Help Me identify this go kart body
picked this body up at an estate sale. Can’t find any info about it. I want to resell it, but don’t know why it’s worth

Welcome!
The lead Not4spd gave you is a great start.
Also, I tried a Google search for "Corvette body for go kart" and found many leads. Most were on ebay with wide price ranges.
Hopefully you're in a large enough metropolitan area that you can generate local interest. Crating and shipping this will be a challenge.
Best wishes with this.

It's a little hard to tell from the pictures, but it appears to be the body that came on the 78 Corvette Pace Car go cart, that Chevrolet offered to their dealers in 1978.
I can't say what it's worth, but I can't imagine it would be more than a couple hundred dollars. A few years ago, I had one of the bodies from the 86 Pace Car go cart that Chevrolet offered, and I think I got $200 for it at Corvette Carlisle.
Here's a link to a complete 78 Pace Car go cart, that was for sale here on the Forum last year.
