Not all modern visionaries look to the past. But in vain: in the past, you can draw a lot of interesting solutions.

I think that this is a great opportunity to create a vintage series of cars.

What do you think of it?

Back in the 90's I saw someone had tried to build a car project like that. Ironically I commented that the idea seemed so very 70's (when there was a DIY for just about anything imaginable). Seems it's a whole lot older than I expected.

About vintage series cars, I honestly thought the PT Cruiser was going to go in that direction. They had that mobster-lite look to them.

That’s brilliant and useful!
