Bicycle car!

Hi.. Ibedayank..."morgan is a micocar it does not have a way to be human powered"....I dont know about that...my uncle had one ..and I spent more time pushing to get it started than I ever rode in it......DD
 
I have come over copies of original drawings for the Swedish bicycle car "Phantom" it is from 1944, the job description is in Swedish. so anyone who wants to read it, must learn Swedish! :)

Oh excellent! Thankyou so much for posting these drawings; - I had copies of the drawings already, only they were nothing like as clear as these. It would be truly wonderful if you could translate the instruction sheets into English though, - I for one would be very grateful indeed :)

Not quite on topic I know, but how's this for a simple car you can build yourself. Checkout the plans, - this wee car is no tiddler; - 7 foot wheelbase, 3 foot 6 inch track and it rides on 28 inch bicycle wheels

Try this for a bicycle car. It's a Pedelux.

So, What do you guys and girls think about this? It's a 21 speed human powered quadrocycle with hydraulic disc brakes. It has a powerful DC generator geared to operate w/212cc motor from Harbor Freights. It has running lights, turn signals, breaks, etc. It's a great ride.

Looks like fun, tiny.

With a 212 motor there probably won't be too much pedaling, though! :-)

I think, now-a-days, it might be best to go with three wheels because 4 puts you into car classification which has more regs than the motorcycle classes.

enough of a battle with tax collectors over a 50cc motor on a bicycle!

Hi Rustycase, well to tell you truth, I’ve ran this type of quadricycle around Lancaster, CA and some other areas for a year now.
