[F.J. Mitchell]

Right after WWII, Crosley, an appliance company, put out a teennie weenie car called the crosley. I never owned one, never knew anyone who did, but I looked at one in the show room one time. I believe the design was the model for the Yugo, only yugo improved on it. There was no uphostlery except for a cardboard headliner as best I can recall and it had two front seats-not bucket seats by any stretch of the imagination, and a bench type back seat, with about one inch of padding, just like the front seats. I was too young to concern myself with such things as horsepower and such-but I would bet that the engine was the same as was used on Crosley's old pre-rural electrification, washing machine motors.

I thought it was the prettiest thing I had ever seen. I also wanted to pick it up, because it looked like I could have. Never tried it though, but I still bet I could have.

Does anyone else remember those Crosleys ?
