G'day
Late 70's Alfetta. Watch it rust before your eyes!

G'day
After quite a bit of poking around the net, I have found a reference to a TWIKE. Apparently it is a Swiss designed, German made, pedal assisted electric trike. Apparently weighs about 250-300kg and has also found some buyers in the USA. I also found that one has come to Australia, where, with a supplementary small petrol engine driving through a fourth wheel, it made it to Uluru.
From searching images, there appears to be a later version with different lights
Not sure what I think.
Cheers
Graham

Yup, it's a 1978 Alfa Romeo Alfetta 2000 Berlina. IIRC most US-Spec Alfetta sedans were 1750s or v6s.

US bumpers and Euro lights?
Same style as Cameron's car in Ferris Bueller's Day Off. It had starting problems.

I thought Cameron drove a gen I VW Jetta.
