Here is a cute little car that I recently sold to a fellow in Florida. He was very happy to get it. Allready has it running then he tore it apart and is restoring it.
This came from a family of mini machines.

Craig, there is an old old Honda car here in town, half the size of a teener, and it has a wind-up key sticking out of the rear end.

(I know that's not stock.. wink.gif)

Any idea what the model could be?

Just so you don't draw back like a salted slug, I am asking because of your seemingly somewhat infinite knowledge on old stuff, and oddities, NOT HONDAS... PER SE.

miles, is it the one with the back window that looks like a scuba mask?

Craig, how 'bout PABLO?

Mini Moke, but is that a Allis-Chalmers in the background?

Miles, If it is the roadster then it would be one of three S500, S600 or S800.
Sean I mean't, not name the car, ID the car.

Likely a Honda 600. First Honda car imported to US.

Correct that is an Allis Chalmers and no that is not a Mini Moke.

So how many times canI guess???

Looks like it could be a kit car called the Veep (VW/Jeep) Had a FG body on a VW frame. But then again it looks like a european made something.

As many guesses until guessed. HINT: Made in USA and not a kit car.

LS6914,

Welcome to the BBS. We need to chat about your V8914. Please start another thread giving us the scoop on it.

At first it looks like a Mini Moke ( I was looking for one when I stumbled across 914's)....but it's too tall for one and too short.

I'd guess a Cub?

WE HAVE A WINNER.........Kafermiester has been the closest. It is built by Crosley in San Diego Calif. It is a Crofton.

Crosley was a strange car, but it won the Index of Performance at Sebring one year. If I remember right the engine was stamped outta sheet metal of something weird like that.

Had I not been from Cincy, I probably wouldn't have even considered a Crosley. I did some looking on the net a few minutes ago. Didn't Crosley sell out to the folks who made the Crofton?
