It's a bit similar to the BMW Isetta.

I think that Cousin It's car was a Messerschmitt KR.

I wonder how an updated/modernized version of that little car would sell?? Provided it could pass safely standards.

Nice subtle ghost flames. I thought of putting some on our sports car before we sold it.

That’s the car that Cousin It drove on the Addams Family TV show.

I didn't think Cousin It was shown having a car in the TV series from the 60s. In the 90s movies It drove a Messerschmitt KR (not sure if it was the 175 or 200).

From the front it looks like it is just another Iso Isetta licensed copy but after seeing a profile view it is like a weird cross between the various Isettas and a Messerschmitt KR. And now my knowledge of micro cars has been expanded.

You may be right.

I've looked and there isn't any clear detail about Itt and the car. There are some screen grabs floating around the innerwebs that show the scene from one of the movies, but no photos at all from the 1960's TV show with Itt and his car. I do remember he came to visit them a lot, but how his arrival was portrayed I can't remember for sure.

All those micro cars look the same to me.

But they are pretty cool.

Kind of a two-fold post here...

I just happened to turn down the right road to take photos of some barns when this guy flew up. He made several passes like he was crop dusting, but I did not notice sprayers.

That's a Piper PA-25 Pawnee. He just wanted his picture taken. 😎

**KC0PET** · 09-27-2018, 07:06 PM

Am I seeing that the name on the side is Rock River Arms? Hmm, what is he really doing??

Anybody know what the flared box is on the bottom?
