Re: it's a JIP.
With a 8.5hp one cylinder, it makes you wonder why the hood needs 4 latches.

OT: Re: it's a JIP.
That looks similar to the King Midget. The King Midget was heavily
advertised in the 1960's in magazines like Popular Mechanics, Popular Science and Mecaniix Illustrated. I remember the "testimonials" from folks who decided to take their King Midget to escape from a horrible flood/storm, because it was more reliable than their Lincoln. I had dreams about buying a King Midget when I was about 12, because I figured that was about all I could afford. http://www.microcarmuseum.com/tour/kingmidget3.html Tom "DougW" <post.replies@invalid.address> wrote in message news:B_8Xf.8095$FD4.5702@dukeread07... > Rilly, a JIP. > > http://www.microcarmuseum.com/tour/kapi.html > > -- > DougW > > |
