Back around 1910-1925 these babies were a cheap and affordable alternative to a real car. Bodies were ultra simplistic, some even used wooden frames. Typically motorcycle powered and chain driven, mostly front engine but RWD, though some were rear engined RWD. Basically they were road legal go karts, inherently dangerous but a ton of fun.

I kinda dig them, though if I built one it'd be made to be lower than a snakes belly.

What do y'all think about these?

I forgot about that one Smalls. Somewhere, in a foreign land folks build something similar using a cut down steel barrel for a body. I'll search for it.
