This go-kart was designed to resemble a 1934 Ford Roadster hot rod with fiberglass bodywork finished in red with flames over a tubular steel chassis. Power comes from a 212cc Predator single paired with a centrifugal clutch. Equipment includes a removable black soft top, tan leather upholstery, a quick-release steering yoke, a hydraulic disc brake, 5″ and 6″ wheels, a tinted windshield, headlights, a horn, and an electric starter.

This 1926 Ford Model T was built in 1974 by ‘Lil John Buttera for the Hot Rod magazine “Great California Street Rod War” challenge. It was the cover car on the December 1974 issue of the magazine and won the Al Slonaker Memorial Award at the Oakland Roadster Show in 1975, and it has gone on to be recognized at the Grand National Roadster Show and featured on the cover of Rod and Custom in 1990, along with other publications. The steel T body is mounted on a space-frame-style chromoly chassis fabricated by Buttera, who used a Ford 289ci V8 and C-4 automatic transmission for the drivetrain. The car rides on staggered Borrani wire wheels and has power-assisted disc brakes, A-arm front suspension, a Jaguar-style rear end, Alden adjustable coilovers, and disc brakes. The interior features Volvo bucket seats, a ’72 Cadillac Eldorado dashboard, power windows, cruise control, and air conditioning. The car was refurbished by a previous owner and acquired by the Petersen Museum in 2004, and it is now offered at no reserve with literature featuring the car a clean California title in the seller’s name.

 

Buttera sourced the steel T Tudor body in Arizona, and it was modified with a ⅛” sheet aluminum roof bolted to the body, a riveted floor, sealed seams, and stretched fenders. The car was repainted by a previous owner.

The double-tube frame uses .125″-wall, 1.5″x3″ mild steel main rails stiffened with . 090″-wall, 2″ 4130 chromoly tubing. Buttera fabricated the A-arm front suspension system with uprights machined from 7075 T6 aluminum, 4130 control arms using stainless-steel Fabroid rod ends, an MG 1100 rack-and-pinion steering assembly, adjustable coilovers, and modified Kelsey-Hayes disc brakes. The Jaguar-based independent rear end was also modified by Buttera. The right-front upright was rebuilt in April 2025.

Buttera utilized staggered and chromed Borrani wire wheels, which are currently mounted with 185/70-14 front and 235/ 75-15 rear Goodyear tires.

Volvo seats were retrimmed in leather and tweed by Tony Nancy, and the dashboard components are from a ’72 Cadillac Eldorado. Amenities include air conditioning, cruise control, power windows, a CD stereo with four speakers, and multiple custom Buttera billet-aluminum details.

A wood-rimmed steering wheel was fitted as well. The odometer is illegible.

The 289ci V8 was assembled by Art Chrisman with Venolia pistons, an Edelbrock intake manifold and carburetor, Cobra-logo valve covers, and a finned sump. The seller notes a replacement 302-specification Edelbrock manifold was fitted in 2025, though the carburetor may require replacement and the engine does not run smoothly.

The C-4 automatic was reportedly modified with B&M components, and it is linked to a quick-change rear end.

Copies of the multiple publications the car has appeared in are displayed in the gallery and included with the car.

The car is titled as a 1926 Ford using VIN T136450.
