The kid did a fine job parking, and wedging in, his little vehicle. I think he might be in front of a "Silver Streak" 1935 Pontiac .

Maybe he parked there first and got hemmed in.

Paul, does your “intuition” hint that those cars are owned by “seamstress’s?” 😂 Sorry, couldn’t resist…now I’m in “stitches”.

Great old pic. Makes you wonder about the circumstances, especially with the look on the young driver's face.

Yeah, I wonder about the design philosophy behind that little car and whether it was a kit, or a totally homebuilt design or some other idea .
Rear gasoline small engine for rear tires ? Two-stroke ? Very small inflatable or solid tires ? Front lights ? And what is under that front hood ?
