1959 BMW Isetta WHATTADRAG

This car is just like the small toy HotWheels version

Except that it actually runs.

And it is very very fast.

And it is very very loud.

With a Big Block Chevy 502 motor and SuperCharger,
BF-Goodrich G-Force P215/60R14 tires in the front
and a single Sumitoma HTRZ II 285/35ZR18 tire in the rear,
it will smoke any other microcar out there.

It uses Premium 93 Octane Fuel

Yes, there is a switch to make it throw flames out about 4 feet on each side

Manufacturers:
Body by Bayerische Motoren Werke, Munich, Germany
Everything else done by The Bruce Weiner Microcar Museum.
