carsntrucks4you Posted May 31, 2020 Author Share Posted May 31, 2020 (edited) Here the solution of the 2nd One Off Build quiz. I was looking for a 1947 Gregory Sedan. Beside the Dymaxion, the Coleman and two patents from Ford (1933) and Rover Group (1999) the Gregory has a weird or odd drivetrain: Rear engine and front wheel driven The correct answer were sent in by porschercr Bucky Ace-Garageguy dw1603 Well done, congratulations.

Pete J. Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Boy was I off base. Because of the angle of the photo I could have sworn that it was a prototype based on a Renault 4CV! Spent all my time rooting around in European manufactures. Would never have guessed it origins . I got the rear engine but totally missed the front wheel drive. What a weird little car! Thanks for posting this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucky Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 I don't know about now, but I believe this car has spent time in a museum in Nashville, Tn., about 80 miles from where I live. I'll get up there, someday, to check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonW Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 (edited) Good to know the answer. Rear engined, front wheel drive and those looks! What's not to like? Edited May 31, 2020 by DonW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteski Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 That is one unusual vehicle, both aesthetically, and mechanically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
