    I'd like to own a ZENN car for booting around the neighborhood.

    If I were to drive this car, I would have to wear my helmet and a HANS Device with it.

    I posted old pics of this truck awhile ago. It's not exactly a "dream" car, but I finally managed to purchase it from my friend. We hauled it home today. More pics and story can be found here: http://www.northwestcoin.ca/essex.html
