All Car - Charly
« on: May 26, 2015, 05:52:25 pm »
Can any one help me answer an email from an enthusiast in GB who is looking for information about his Charly.  He writes"I have a 'Charly' 3 wheeler and was told that you were the club guru on matters archival.
The chassis number is not easy to read but appears to be;
 
                                     DGM 15330 OMC  CHARLY 001110
 
        I am curious to know its history, age, model, original  engine, whatever."    Jean

(NB: I tried to add a picture but was clearly unsuccessful- help)

I'm guessing its one of the "All cars " Charly's, later renamed Snuggy. 1974 to 1985. Used MInareli engines then switched to Morini.   If this is the car he has there is a section on it and the company in Chris Rees book, all three books I should say.

Translatede from Denis's site

The AUTOZODIACO Italian company that manufactured buggies, proposed in 1974 a cart: Charly.
ALL-CARS gave him the name of Snuggy and quickly developed several versions.
In France, it is MARLAND and VITREX in 1976, which assured its diffusion all versions.
The various models

Snuggy





Released in Italy in 1974 under the name of Charly, manufactured by AUTOZODIACO, it will only be available in France and from 1976. Dressed in a pretty respectable dimensions polyester bodywork (2.10mx 1.27), the two places was animated by Morini 4.5cv of a 50cm3 4-speed mechanical box. Equipped with 145/10 rear tires, it could be delivered in beach setting with large low-pressure tires crampons.
A note: a very special driving position because of a clutch pedal to the left of the wheel when the brake and accelerator pedals and steering wheel were right!
Tobruk


A green convertible version was proposed in 1978.
A spare wheel was hung outside, 4X4 way.
Charly4


From the same body that Snuggy, the four wheels was in France, available in the version "without license" while in Italy and 125 engines were intended 250cm3 honorable performance. Two versions: road and beach.
Photo Model of 1986 road, the steering wheel for several years had already found a more normal position, left.

I am not an archival expert.
However I do have experience in both repairing and improving the function of this vehicle.
I am currently awaiting the arrival of a second example.
Both of mine are blue closed coupes.
