Need Help Identifying this Kiddie Car

So the woman says " Get this out of my yard " No idea where or when its from, says Letizia on the dash. Cool little wire wheels with all 4 knockoffs, space for a 6 v (?) car battery in the front. Yea its a mess, fibergl*** needs big help but how can you say no to it?? Its about 36" wide, 76" long.

I originally thought an old carnival go kart but there are no bumpers on it so at a carnival it would get messed up pretty quick, thinking a home use electric pedal car.

Anyone ever see anything like it??

 

Looks like a old electric gokart.... in good condition the origional fibergl*** bodys on these things can get a good amount of money... you might wana sign up here www.diygokarts.com and im sure theres someone there that may be able to help you out.

 

That is cool. If you find any info on it, or other electric cars like that, post it please. I've been trying to find info on one I have.

 

Thanks for the link Freakboy,

I'll let you guys what I find out about it..... this is the fun part !

 

Hey,

I beleve those were produced in Modena Italy. I've never seen a gl*** one, but they were built in aluminum and sold through Ferrari dealers for the well heeled to give to their children.
In the Volume 6, Number 4 of Automobile Quarterly Magazine there are some like and kind examples shown, or so I'm told.

" Humpty Dumpty was pushed "

 

I could use a history lesson on those...

 

ive never seen one before but its pretty darn cool good save

 

They restored something very similar on an episode of Chasing Cl***ic Cars recently. Sold for around $15,000 at an auction with money going to Autism Speaks. It'll probably re-run on Discovery Theater HD.

 

I was thinking it looked a lot like a Ferrari.

 

I know about the Bimbo racer, but that is different than this one.

 

This is a Bimbo Racer.

 

Gonna kick this back up 1x... still no luck on id for the car... 2 restorers have no clue

Thanks,
Steve
