    I think the engine is in the rear on those
     
  9. I see mid-60's custom. Think Monogram model kits. Think Paddy Wagon. Think Red Baron. OK;maybe not the Red Baron. You get the idea...

    ...And I haven't a clue as to what it is.

    This is a great example of the first year of the
    Henway. Needs total restoration.

    That one appears to be a Stutz Pak-Age-Car.
    Pretty rare with about 10 known to be left.

    I think I've seen other pictures of that same truck.
    ================================

    The were also made later by Diamond-T.
    Here's a restored Diamond-T:

    ====================================

    I just picked up 1 and 1/2 of them.
    Here's a link:
    http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=525870

    [​IMG]

    The engine is a small flathead 4 cylinder water cooled Lycoming with a transaxle and halfshafts. Similar to Corvette with a transverse spring.

    You stand up to drive!
    The throttle is on the gearshift lever.

    below is the other 1/2 a Stutz

    =====================================

    Here's another one that was 'saved' last year
    [​IMG]

    ========================================

    Here's the info I've found:

    The 1st model was actually known as a Pac-Kar, built in Chicago in 1926. It had a 7 hp 2 cylinder horizontally opposed engine mounted in the rear. By 1932 the Pak-Age-Car Corporation was in financial trouble, and was bought out by Stutz.

    The first 28 Stutz vehicles in a total order of 340 were completed by the summer of 1936. But this wasn't nearly enough to keep things going, Stutz declared bankruptcy in April 1937.

    Spring of 1938 Pak-Age-Car was sold to Auburn Central Company, (what remained of Auburn - Cord - Duesenburg).

    August 1938 the PAC-AGE-CAR Corporation of Connersville was formed as a subsidiary of Auburn and production moved to Auburn's idle Connersville plant.

    Since Auburn was also in bankruptcy and had no dealerships, Diamond-T was contracted as the dealership to sell and service them.

    it's what Erkle would drive if he went into business. "did i do that"
     
  28. I worked with a guy in the '70s that had something very similar, and drove it to work. He was banging a gal from the orderly room every day at lunch. We called it the "nooner schooner."
