Thanks for the tip, Mike. I have contacted Randy Grubb, and will be working with him on the idea of him building a Deco Tri-Pod for my wife, based on the Piaggio 500cc platform. Cool ! :yes:

The price is quite reasonable IMO (if you know anything about how much work is involved in those aluminum bodies). As a comparison a new Morgan three wheeler with a S&S X-Wedge engine is $50,000+!

Miles I hope it works out. They are a rolling work of art. I thought for a minute of a F6B version.:shhh:

Yes, I had forgotten about the Henderson. Very cool. The art deco style of the cars around that era really are neat. Delahaye, Chrysler Airflow.

Hey Steve 080, maybe Bushtec will make an Airstream version? I also like the styling of the Star Stratoliner.

I love the video, thanks for posting. Jay Leno has all the fun, I watch Jay Leno's Garage once in a while.

I would like to see similar treatment applied to BRP Spider trike, it would be bigger, you wouldn't have to put your feet down at a stop, and faster.
