1932 Helicron, Or, The Pedestrian Hunter
In 1932, one propeller driven Helicron was built. It had a wooden frame, body, and even a wooden propeller. In the late 1930s the car was stored in a barn and forgotten until it was discovered in 2000.
This thing is loud, it’s incredibly dangerous, it’s crude, and we love it. Leave it up to the French to design a car where the express purpose seems to be mowing down sniveling pedestrians for the sake of style.
Here’s a tip, if you’re ever around the Helicron when it’s operating, don’t get anywhere near the propeller wash if you’re wearing shorts.
