JohnPaul Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 The Dymaxion was a huge bubble car, with a Ford V8 and lots of space. It was a 3 wheeler. Unfortunately the single steering wheel was at the back, as in 1933 there where no CV joints. Can this vehicle be re-made, with steering wheels in the front? It achieved 85mph at the time, so with a more modern engine, it may achieve its design speed of +120mph? I hope that Ford makes available drawings which would allow for replicas to be build?

jeebowhite Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 I would doubt it, as 3 wheel motor vehicles reaching these speeds in modern day would not pass any sort of modern safety standards. a 3 wheeler does not have any stability in modern day speeds and conditions and so it really wouldnt be approved for public highway use.
