This is a motorized trike go-kart. It is based off of the 70's Green Machine concept, where the front wheel is powered and the rear axle is the steer. It utilizes 2 rods to control the steering through hand levers, which also control the throttle on one, and brake on the other. It utilizes a "pocket bike" style motor, and the white wire is for electric start. The motor is new and runs well. It was built as a father-son project a little over 10 years ago. There is a small tear in the seat cover and the front fender (which is plastic) has a crack in the back of it. It will power an adult, but should really be used by a lighter person.

Professional Store Display Boy Mechanical Automaton Doll $225 (8)
This is a professional automaton store display. This was built off of a doll and features sleepy eyes. When plugged in one arm moves back and forth and his head moves side to side. He is wearing a green velvet like coat and pants and has an over-sized brown hat. His clothes are a bit faded and there are a few moth-like holes. He does work but there is one spot where if you start him at that point you may have to turn him on and off a few times to get him going, it's the hard point of the mechanism. This animated boy stands 32" tall not including his hat. I find no makers mark on him.

Animated Vintage Store Display Victorian Girl Holiday Caroler $250 (9)
This is a vintage animated holiday store display. It is a Victorian caroler-looking girl in an elegant dress and hat. She has a rear bustle, which I did not put up in the pictures, so the back of her dress is not as "full" as it can be. When plugged in, her right arm moves in and out and her head rocks back and forth in sort of an oval pattern. She has blue "sleepy" eyes. The motor is quiet and she works well, but if she gets moved around she has to be "reset". There are a few stains here and there on her outfit. It looks as if she was originally a doll and was made into a store display, using staples & tape used generously. This lovely lady stands about 33" tall to the top of her head. L743
