What kind of car is this?

Found this for sale but I cant find anything else out about it. says it is a german made Dursik Trimuter - kit car some where from 1979-1981. But Can't find anything about it ~Help !

 

I dont know what it is but that thing is awesome.

 

Do a google search for Trimuter lots of info.

Here is one LINK

 

Very cool ! Thanks a bunch Rik ! So I found out it is a(n) electric car built roughly in 1980s and would be totally unique ! think I may talk the wife into letting me have it ...

 

Looks like there might be some room in back for an Olds Toronado 455 engine ....

 

Umh..the 3 wheel thing always puts me of. trailer?

 

"I think I may talk the wife into letting me have it"

Surely you are joking!!??

I saw one identical to that on the road in Lebanon, PA. about 30 years ago.

 

It does, doesn't it?

I think that wants a T-bucket front axle on it.

 

That's 'cause we've all crashed a tricycle

 

I don't know what it is, but I know what it isn't. It's not a traditional hot rod. And, while I am all for spousal communication, if you need to ask your wife if you can buy it, you more than likely really can't afford it-in so many ways.


PS. Sneak back in time and do an Intro before you get flamed. It will save you a lot of grief.

 

My wifes says I can be on the internet today so here I am.

Buy it, clown cars are babe magnets! LOL

does it have a motorcycle engine in it?

 

Is there a mower deck??

 

looks like a cycle car of some sort.

 

It looks like it needs one of Roth's VW trike ch***is under it...could be a cool sixties sorta show vehicle...but I'd agree, not traditional.

I dunno whatever George Jeston drove.

What I am concerned about is why the mirrors are turned around backward.

 

I saw that in a Popular Mechanics a long time ago. Here is a link for it. http://www.rqriley.com/tm.html

 

i think its a custom wheel barrow

I learned from watching my friends screw up if you ask the wife and she says no you will get a new single lifestyle if you buy it. I say if you can come up with the money WITHOUT raiding the family fund just go buy the thing! She might not be happy with you but she will get past that. I have a few toys. Gone a few days without much chatter from the little women but she does get over being ticked and comes around. And yes she gets spoiled on a regular basis. Thats what keeps home a happy place.
Question is is she good with the whole hobby thing. And can you do what you think you can with it once you get your hands on it! I brought home a half done 39 chevy coupe thought she would kill me I quick like sanded it down friday night shot a coat of black primer on rolled it outside on sunday she looked at it and said I like this one. Still have it 5 yrs later! she calls it the bonnie and clyde car. Still haven't brought the 34 olds home yet. Haven't figured out how I'm going to work that one. But I will!
