Show I f, " CHEAP GADABOUT . . . Stuart M. Moule, 17, Holden, Mass., holds the wheel of the automobile he constructed at a total cost of only 5175. Stuart says the car, weighing 400 pounds, can hit 30 miles per hour and get 63 miles on a gallon of gas. It has sport steel bumpers fore and aft, coil springs in the rear and leaf springs in front. The axles, steering gear and springs were formerly parts of a motor scooter. The roadster won't back up, but Stuart expects to work out that detail. |
