I was amazed. Best I can figure he is near Blythe, CA. Maybe someone here can enlighten me. I'd love to check this place out. And the 914 too!

Followed link provided by Robarbarian. Here is 'the story.' Owner is retiring - the entire empire is for sale.

Poked around to see what I don't need and found a vehicle which I own. After watching the vid would it be surprising if it a vehicle was misidentified? Lets not tell them, only because I might want a second one.

Here's the vehicle. 1940's Hyundai - 1960 Daihatsu they're the same right? Just like the Beetle and 914

Automotive historian hat installed: That little jewel is really a 1959 -1961 Daihatsu MP3 or in the US TriMobile and new for 1959 a steering wheel! Wing windows appeared in '62. Research suggests they were imported in small batches between 1959 and 1969 to try and take on Cushman. If you were willing to buy XX units, you too could be a distributor! They're rare (spare parts support was nil) and that is the 7th one I've seen in the US since buying mine about 12 years ago.

Mine is missing the 12hp air cooled two stroke engine and I'm deciding how fast it needs to be, and what will fit under the seat, it's resting on the to-do list.
