Nice!  You can see the engine while you're driving along, without a big ol'fuel tank to block the view.

But I don't think I could squeeze my exterior into a tiny little interior anymore!

I wonder if this is a slightly more deteriorated version of the model that was for sale on eBay in May 2011. Don't ask me why I keep these things, but I was smitten by that little Guzzi-powered midget. Good thing I passed on it or I'd be the one getting divorced!





EDIT:

Now I'm sure this is the same Guzzi-midget as was on eBay. Take a look at the cockpit comparisons. Current Craigslist car above; old eBay car below. Just makes you want to go for it, doesn't it? The rest of the old and new pictures pretty much confirm that they are the same. So, will this car be a home-wrecker again?

 Put lights, horn, and mufflers on it and license it.  Easy to find parking space.

Is it direct drive?  The drive shaft looks centered so it must be.  Is there an in/out coupling?  It actually looks kinda fun and cheap thrills.  It's a real neck breaker w/o any roll bars.
