Let's Talk Cyclecars

Apologies not required!

 

Lots in the video I have not seen. Thanks and welcome!

 

Yes! Very nice intro, welcome to the HAMB. Bob

 

I think some of us would like to see more pics of the chev speester - you may want to post it on the chev 4 cyl thread.

Kume

 

Sorry Kume, but I don't have any other pictures....

 

Brayton, that's fantastic! I'm in the process of building a '22 490 sprinter/speedster- could you share some more pics? If it's not appropriate here, go ahead and post them on the "1928 4 cyl motor thread"

Kume, you beat me to it

 

This one I found in my archives looks remarkable similar Bill

 

and this one.

 

Transverse 2-stroke twins, and front-wheel drive:

 

That's the same car Kume.... the guy's name is Kim, He lives near Reno NV and he also likes old engines and Jeep cabovers... I remember he did find it in a barn.

 

Here's a car I built with various parts (mostly ford) a few years back... at the time I thought I was trying to make something that looked like a prewar dirt car... It's low and has 1/4 elliptic front and rear... The radiator is aero... now I realize what I wanted to build was a cyclecar but my parts were too big... I think I may give it another try but maybe I'll start with some Austin 7 parts next time.

 

Also here's an engine someone might enjoy.. I had a few years back... It's from a car called a F.A.S.T. made in Turin Italy around 1917-1919... It was a pretty neat engine.. I ended up selling it to a guy in the UK who had a proper chassis for it.

 

Amilcar on offer through www.PreWarcar.com

What a beauty. I thought long and hard on this Austin but didn't make an offer.

I think 32000£ is a fair price.

 

another barn find Benjamin

 

Very nice!

Here are some images from Cameron Engineering and Motorsports Ltd.. These folks will build you a brand new J.A.P. engine or parts for your Morgan three wheeler! How about that two stage chain driven supercharger outfit?!!!

I've been watching their site and videos. Amazing company. It's hard to believe that they even exist; same thing for PurSang in Argentina.

 

Fred what may allow them to do the racing stuff is the contract machine work they do.It's probably custom(read classified) military stuff .So,it's unlikely you'll be seeing any youtube vidoes of that.

 

Good morning Herb!
