1959 Meadows Frisky Sport
This vehicle is an extremely rare example of an original, unrestored Meadows FriskySport convertible microcar. It is titled as 1959 model and is one of roughly 13 in the world, with roughly half of those being LHD. This car is in the Frisky Registry and is a very early production split-tail model, being manufactured in the same manner as the prototypes and retaining the rear "vents" in the body. The mileage is correct at 1166, and the Villers 3T engine has been confirmed as original to the car. Essentially all of the details are present, including mirrors, levers, bumperettes, spare tire, luggage rack, signal lenses, convertible top, dash trays, engine cover, and more.
The car has been stored dry in a barn & garage for decades, and you can see that it is showing its 50+ year age, but it is remarkably complete and intact. Mechanically the car is sound, and I believe it to be only a gentle restoration away from a running, driving, highly collectible vehicle.
This car was advertised in Hemmings in August 2011 for $15,000 obo
