The Bruce Weiner Microcar Museum in Madison, Georgia, has got to be the mac-daddy of micro cars. Some of these things are so cool, like this 1960 Isetta.

I’d love to have one of these things, or better yet, I’d love to build one. Or something like it.

The microcar concept is pretty simple; getting people from point A to point B in a city shouldn’t require two tons of machinery that gets 10-20 mpg. Motorcycles would be a good alternative, mileage-wise, but that wouldn’t work around here in the winter. So what about taking one of those crazy 4-wheelers that zip around on the street, tear it apart & put it back together so that it doesn’t ride like a motorcycle and has some protection from the elements?

Something to think about.
