    The Little Something

    Swung by John Esposito's and Tony + Marco's shop (TLG), over the week-end . . .

    Visited, looked at stuff, jaw-boned some . . . wasted all kinds o' their time . . . + saw this

    . . . so, picking-up on a comment from a few months back . . .

    This is The Little Something that John's been quietly working on --- a Steyr 50 . . . aka 'Baby' . . . from ~1936

    Liquid-cooled 4 cylinder (in the front) + RWD. Think of it as an Austrian 'people's car'

    John had to fabricate all manner of bits + pcs for this project, took some time to point out the details, tells me that the metal-work is mostly done, so . . . .

    Oh --- this is not the trunk

    Spare tire slots in, there

    Car was a two-tone olive green + green-grey, originally . . . traces still to be seen here + there

    And check-out the interior . . . apple green
