DonW Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 My miss-spent youth pays off again! But I learned something that surprised me when I checked up on the details. Cheers, Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dw1603 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 I think I’ve got the “where” and the “when” but not the “what” Would you settle for two out of three? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carsntrucks4you Posted February 17, 2021 Author Share Posted February 17, 2021 I think I found a tough one again. Until know only one response. Let me give you a hint. This litte car is based on a car that compete with the Ford Model Y and Morris 8. It was build in a city west of Paris which is know for Chataeu....... an important royal residence during the July Monarchy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dw1603 Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Completely wrong on the “where”, a couple of years out on the “when” and not a clue on the “what”. Not even Meatloaf would give me a pass on that dismal effort. Good job Michael came to the rescue with his invaluable clues (again) Total surprise, but I got it. Thanks Michael!

DonW Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 I must be honest that although I knew what it was I had always thought it came from a different country and it wasn't until I did some digging to get the dates that I found out the where. Still. I was that one response and I'll take that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No dingos or wallabies in South Wales! Aberdare is between the Brecon Beacons and Cardiff, not in New South Wales at all.🦘😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brizio Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Pretty cool small car! A friend of a friend invited us to see his car collection, many years ago. This gentleman had around 30 classic cars, all restored like new. One of this was the car in the picture. Pretty cool small car! Although I think from stock they have the front bumper.

Cars and truck in general were right hand drive back then. I think they started with horses and buggy. The driver stop on the right side of the road and open the dor for let the people go out of the carriage. The chaffeur on cars did the same. On truck they said that having the steering wheels on the right allowedd the driver to see better the edge of the road, and it was easy to follow.
