Rare Reverse Trike Norsjo Flakmoped Swedish 3 Wheel Moped Velorex Morgan on 2040-parts.com
Orlando, Florida, US
This is a rare bird anywhere outside of North Western Europe. It's a Norsjo brand flakmoppe or flakmoped in more English terms. Basically a reverse trike 3 wheeled moped. The Swedes built these cool trikes starting after WW2 to deliver mail, farm goods, etc. Even neater is in most US States they can be street legal by adding lights (wiring already present, simply plug them in).
I bought this a few years ago from a small airplane mechanic who had brought it into the country back in the 1980's. This past summer I had it running and driving, using it largely to run a lawnmower back and forth to my mother's house. I hate to see it sit and would like to find it a new home. Engine size is 49cc with a 2 speed automatic transmission.
Keep in mind it is older and not perfect, but is also extremely rare. Use it for a food truck alternative or farmers market stand. Amaze your friends and use it for fun (it is fun to drive!)
Payment due within 5 business days. I can hold it for 30 days. I can probably deliver it within 100 miles of Orlando, FL for fuel costs.

Land Rover Defender Challenge announced (2014)
Wed, 30 Oct 2013By Damion Smy Motor Industry 30 October 2013 12:01 Land Rover has confirmed that it is the official sponsor of the 2014 ‘Defender Challenger by Bowler’, which will see a field of up to 15 tricked-up Defender 90s hit the rough stuff as crews get down and dirty, Dakar style. It’s all about enticing those who are curious about rally raids, such as the legendary Dakar event that’s held early each year. A lack of experience, as well as costs, has made it difficult for novices looking to qualify for the necessary licence, so the Defender Challenge is ideal for rally wannabes looking to dip a toe in the water, so to speak, with no experience required to enter.
New Nissan Juke revealed: Geneva Motor Show
Wed, 05 Mar 2014The 2014 Nissan Juke revealed at Geneva A new Nissan Juke has been teased by Nissan over the last week or so, and although the idea that this is a ‘New’ Juke is way off the mark, Nissan has managed to make the 2014 Juke better by offering more of the same. Sensibly, Nissan has kept the Juke’s quirky ‘Ugly is appealing’ looks intact and the new Juke is very much a Juke but it does get the usual facelift fodder of restyled bumpers and lights, front and back, with LED running lights and LED tail lights and a new grill. New personalisation options come in to play for the Juke too, with three levels offering coloured splashes to the front and rear bumpers, alloys and cabin, all of which can be retro-fitted in case subsequent owners aren’t thrilled with how it looks.
Subaru’s rear-drive sports car (2011) at 2011 Geneva motor show
Tue, 22 Feb 2011While Toyota unveiled a revised version of its FT-86 sports car at the 2011 Geneva motor show, Subaru chose to only preview the powertrain of its 'Toyobaru' rear-drive sports coupe. Subaru and Toyota are developing the car together, and each will produce a version of the rear-drive coupe in 2012, but so far it’s been Toyota that’s grabbed all the limelight. Yes, though Subaru was originally due to show a full concept version of its RWD sports car at Geneva, but has instead only revelead the powertrain and basic body shape – not the best move, as the Toyota looks good, and without body panels you only imagine this Scooby version to have bland, flat body panels. The engine is a naturally aspirated 2.0-litre flat four, and the car rides on 17in wheels.
