The name is Bond





The other day we featured a car with an unusual drivetrain.

Today we have a little Bond, also with a unique system.

A chain drive to the front wheel that pivots. Oh for the good

old days, with lots of room in the engine compartment.

www.clunkbucket.com - They got that right -
