I think this is one of the build-it-yourself designs that featured in this magazine over a period of a few years. They had a few velocar designs as well.

I like the styling. From the picture, which is from a time when pictures and photographs tended to exaggerate  it is hard to know how big it really is, it looks at least as long as a KR.

I was wondering why it had Spocked wheels. Not an unpleasant style, if the art is to be believed. But did any live long and prosper?

Dear Bob

Is this going to be your next project, built using NSU quickly parts and Balsawood panels?
