Something about those "A and pre A 356's...they look like bottom feeder sea creatures.

How about a Bug Eyed Sprite? The owner was asking 15K. Something to think about with pricing our 914's

I recognize that second micro car as a Messerschmitt. What is the first one? NSU?
Those Germans and their air-cooled tail-draggers. |

The first micro cars' nameplate was on the dash.....Bianchian....or something like that. All I know was that it was very close to the Vespa car my brother bought from our uncle back in the early seventies. This one had LOTS more chrome than the Vespa tho. Same suicide doors, top, and 2 cylinder motor. Ours was a 2 cycle, you had to put oil in a tank that mixed with the fuel. We fabbed up an expansion chamber with a silencer for an exhaust. Top speed......bout 40, downhill, with a tailwind (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) . I had to look that one over good.....brought back memories (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) .....obviously (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) .....Dad (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif) edit....I went to the site....www.carsfromitaly.com....it sure looks like it was the car.....coulda swore it was a Vespa......now I have to look up....Vespa..
