Duffy Livingstone made a full-scale go-kart called the Eliminator to find out. It's like Frankenstein's monster, but instead of people parts, it's made with a Ford Model A frame, Model T bodywork, and a small-block Chevy V-8 engine.
The father of go-karting in many ways, Livingstone entered the Eliminator in contests against full-size race cars of the day and won. As his kart business grew, he had less time to feed people dust, and the Eliminator changed hands until now, where it is up for auction on the Bring a Trailer site.
