Am I the only one that thinks these things are just too cool.
Back when I daily drove a BMW 2002, I always resented ladies calling it "cute". But hard to resist that description on the Bantam.
With a whopping 20 hp (and I thought my 66 hp Opel GT 1.1 was anemic) I can't imagine taking it down the interstate. At least the Opel will do an honest 100 mph on flat land.
And,... you could probably modify a four post lift to store four of them (maybe an exaggeration there).
