1948 Kurtis Kraft Upright Midget

There were nearly 400 Kurtis Midget racing cars built from 1945-1952 and they were the best of their kind at the time. This car won 32 “feature” midget races, 1948-1978 and placed 4th in the National AAA competition in 1954.

The current owner set an FIA international speed record in it at Bonneville Salt Flats in 1989 at a speed of 156.902.
