Made in the USA


It's easy to think that all the microcars and minicars came to us from Europe or Japan. (Isetta - German/Italian, Heinkel - German, Messerschmitt - German, Fiat 500 - Italian, Subaru 360 - Japanese, Honda 600 - Japanese, Bond - English, Berkeley - English)

You get the idea...

But, let's not forget all the minicars that were made right here in the USA.

Crosley
King Midget
American Austin/Bantam
Buckboard (various manufacturers)
Crofton Bug
HMV Freeway
Pulse
Playboy

And we are confident that this is only the tip of the iceberg. It's the Forth of July -- let's celebrate the mini and microcars made in the USA. Send in the names of the ones we left off the list.
