Went to the Homo Depot in south Green Bay yesterday and encountered this. 83 YO owner knew the original owner, who gave it to their daughter for a wedding present, she sold it to her nephew and this gent bought it from him in about 1960 INTACT. He says besides a motor rebuild its all original except for the top cover. Its a non electric car with oil side lamps. non de-mountables and a MAG horn and lights. Notice no ammeter or generator, but he did ad a starter and battery some 30 or so years ago. Turned the key on and almost got a freebie, but 1/4 turn on the twister and he was on his way. Couldn't even hear it in reverse. ws
