Another 'bitsa' car.

For 1 point, identify this vehicle, its constructor, and at least two donor vehicles that contributed parts to this one. At least one of them should be easy to spot!  :)

Be sure to answer all parts of the question, if you'd like the point. Only complete answers will earn a point[/b]

You're halfway there - the body began life as a Jeepster. The moving parts came from somewhere else.

Orville Krienke was a racefan and local business man. He owned the A+W Rootbeer stand in Homestead and built this creation to help advertise the business. This is a Jeep body mounted on the running gear from a giant 1957 Chrysler. Orville's car still exists in Homestead.
