this "motorcycle car" was built in early fifties by automotive engineer Theron Huish of Los Angeles.
the body is a reinforced aircraft drop tank; engine is the motorcycle type with a fan for cooling. top speed was about 60 mph

This car was recently "discovered" by American Pickers:
It seems the builder was a Mr Robert Ruzella from Ventura, California...even if there are a couple of magazine claiming it was  Theron W. Huish's work, from Los Angeles...
