I stopped reading when it said it was built in 1967 to promote the 1965 model year...

The speedoman fallacy
Just as an FYI, the following are the original posts from this guy when he first came on the club cobra scene...

It is all original, runs good, and has original tires and old school wheels. This is a very rare one of a kind cool antique. Would make an excellent addition to a car collection or make it your own. Caroll Shelby had these made for promotional events and gave away 10 of these with the first 10 cars that were sold, This is what I was told and all I know about this Go Kart. The body has a few minor cracks on the bottom. One is in the front and one in the back, but these can easily be repaired. I am open to series offers over $5000 and/or partial trades. I have looked online everywhere and could not find anything that comes close to this one. If anyone else has has any information on these older Cobra karts, please share it. Thanks!

I tried to find a 289 Ford F I A side sticker online like this one and again no luck. I have seen 2 fiberglass bodys that look like this but mine is much different, oh well it's still cool, maybe one day I will do some more research on it. I only found one statement that said "I remember back in the 60's and have wondered what ever happen to those Small Cobra Go karts that Shelby made up and everyone was riding around on them", other then that I have found no information on them. I was hoping someone in here could help out, I thought the same as you when I bought it. I Like to gamble so some time you win some times you don't. I guess will see, the story did sound rather unlikely but I said the same as you did what the heck. Again if anyone in here knows anything about this Go kart, please let me know. Thanks!

Still trying to locate the two side badges like the one that came off the go kart. I have looked everywhere online and can't find such a badge, check my album out. it says 289 Ford F I A, if anyone knows where I can buy these please let me know. Thanks!

That is what confuses me...
"Ok enough said Unreserved Auction starting at $8500.00 Good Luck"
