<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The Disney cars were different, but no less
cool. They were more "rounded" looking. The King Midgets were built
for the street. I think most of them were sold in kit form. You can
see the old ads in Popular Mechanics type magazines from the late 1940's to the
late 1960's. They were not much more than a big go-kart. Most had no
reverse and engines were Briggs & Stratton type (Kohler, etc) driving a live
axle to one rear wheel. They were underpowered with engines as small as 2
hp, but I believe most had a 6 to 8 hp engine. I have seen some refitted
with new Honda industrial engines. They are a super cool car. If you
like this sort of thing, also do a search on Mini Moke...about the same but more
refined and more power.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>HI All </DIV>
<DIV> I think the King Midgets were early arcade cars. Disney Lanod
had something similar in the early sixty's. Most likely a 50cc
engine - not vary fast at all!!</DIV>
