    You could see the hammer marks in the nose of the second car.

    I have a thing for three-wheelers.
    The Davis production was around 17 in 1947-49.
    Neat car with very clean design. I believe there was a prototype station wagon, too.

    Thanks for posting the video.

    The 1st one looks like a goose coming at you and the second one was probably the start to the weinermobile,the third there just ain"t much you can say about it except,what the hell were they thinking.

    Looks like the Cord guy built a Aircraft "Theme Car" before it was popular to do so:rolleyes: I think he should have stopped at the cord.

    I was amazed at the wear on that old bias ply tire after it was jacked up. This was before the radial Michelins came over to the USA.
