This is one of the two electric powered 'sports roadsters' built by Leif H. Eriksen at the Oslo based N. Jacobsens Karosserifabrikk during the second world war.

Built during WW 2, that is the only information I have.

My guess is 1940 - as the war progressed, Eriksen became involved with the resistance and was forced to flee to Sweden in 1943
