1956-1971 Velorex 16	JFK 2015-09-13 16:05	Only street legal car (although it looks like few motorbike parts mashed together and covered with rag) that have rag as a bodyshell. They did them before 1955, but as a Os-Kar (Car on axis (osa)) 53. Half of them were exported. It appeared on Top Gear: www.imcdb.org/i203926.jpg and Jeremy didnt like it. It had 4 gears forward and 4 reverse - engine could run on opposite way, so someone with suicide thoughts could theoretically ride in this 3-wheeled tent backwards at 85 km/h. It had major role in movie Vrchn�, prchni (Head waiter, get lost), when it was second car of main character with Lada. Well, that are some facts about this interesting car.

Because of that, car was often nicknamed as a "running tent" or a "rag-o-plan" (pun to Tatraplan, car made by Tatra). They did few 4 wheeled cars with solid body, but they were not that famous and nowadays are much rarer to find. Proably only 4-wheeled Velorex that made it to production was 435 "Gray Revenge", but it suffered from serious faliures, such as doors that fell off when driving, exuhaust fumes going into cabin or overheating brakes. I already add it (with Velorex 1960 prototype) and it is waiting for validation.
