    I just got back from the Chicago Coin-op Show and I got this cool little carnival ride race car from a guy I've been buying lots of old carnival stuff from. Gotta keep this one to hang up after I pretty it up a little. Kim says I'm the worlds worst antique dealer...I want to keep everything I buy!

    Very Very cool. I will try to find where I saw it. I saw some old photos of a traveling carnie group of shriner type guys that had Carts just like that. Were they controlled by center arm? are there any "mounting" points under the rocker panel on the p***. side?

    chopo, this thing has to be from a small kids ride. The thing is TINY. It looks like it hooked by the bar in the front center. Sinister, I AM the kid!!

    That is pretty cool. Definite potential with a small engine and go-kart style frame/steering.
