In 1958, I saw a go cart with a Crosley 4 cyl engine mounted sideways on it. It wasn't running at the time I saw it, but the owner said it was scary to drive!!
This garden tractor.... Has the same three speed manual transmission that was used in Crosley cars... It's run by belt and outputs to a chain drive... and it sits sideways in the chassis. But it's the same Borg Warner unit. (Tractor is a 1950's Bready, so it's a classic and almost a car. It's also mine, that's my front yard)
I knew a guy that had a Crosley firetruck something like this....but I think it had ladders on the side.
No, made for the car I think. It was a long time ago. Sat at a used car dealer friend of my father on Route 30 near Jeannette. Amadio's used cars or something like that. Never saw it running.
i want the deliverator version. with a portable solar charging station i can somehow carry around on it. well if wishes were horses. everything on the road costs too much. and the only reason i'd want anything would be to not have to live i cities and to be able to haul stuff home that is too awkward to drag on and off the bus. but for what should be on the road, if there even is a road, yup, i think this thing is the right general idea. all this talking about investing makes me think mines and wells, back in the days before so called truth in advertising. i just wish this was all in the context of a culture that didn't try to make everything have to be about money. oh well. i'm not concerned with convincing any one person about anything. i'm concerned about the kind of world i, and they, and everyone else has to live in, humanity as a species having a future and so on, that sort of thing. and also there's an aesthetic of little trains in the forest that there isn't with cars in the city. and then there's environment which isn't about aesthetic, but about what it takes for our species to exist, or at least be sane doing so.
Hey Marcco how about a little info with the pictures of these cars as us Yanks are unfamiliar with a lot of them? Thanks.
