Hi
Lots of nostalgia some of it transport and modeling related.

But what is the 3 wheeler at around 17:50--18--10?

My first thought was Peel.
But did they make anything that big?

I know I have seen one like that before.

Hi
I don't think Peel went that big, headlamps and wings are wrong for Allard, front panel is wrong for Frisky.

I have started looking through here http://www.3wheelers.com/aztour.html

Should keep me going for a couple of years. Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing

Hi
I've had a reply from elvis at 3-wheelers, he suggests that it's a Nobel which is a licence built Fuldamobil.
The picture in the A-Z shows the front view with tubular bumper.
This picture has a different bumper arrangement but show s the rear decking.

Because they were licence built in various countries there might well be variations in exact styling.

Interestingly, there is a connection with my signature line.

Quote:
The Nobel was financed by Cyril Lord and had a chassis that was built by Harland & Wolf , Belfast (They also built the Titanic) unlike the original Fuldamobils it had a fibreglass body courtesy of the Bristol Aeroplane company.


Also, how many of us had Cyril Lord carpets I wonder.
