Tonight in about 30 minutes the American Pickers show on The History Channel will be at Wings Castle. Pete was a HAMB member loved history and cars. He died just about a year ago in his MORGAN three wheeler. Really miss him, he inspired a lot of people. Bob

 

Hi Motoklas,
Yes I wrote about the creation of that car earlier on in these pages. It is based on a 1921 Talbot London 8/18 chassis with original running gear. There is not much to be said about it. I built an aluminum body and supercharged the 960cc engine. The size of the car is like an Austin Seven.

Kid,​

Somewhere I found note under that photo that owner of the company (or general manager) took his female stuff from dactilo-birou on jolly-ride and to show possibilities of quite light and fragile 3-wheel automobile...
Anyway, nice period photo of cute car!

Zoran, I took that photo from a copy of Horseless Carriage Days by Hiram Percy Maxim, there are other photos of this car and many others built before 1900. Bob
