Is this an early version of a Kuempel Speedster using Red-I-Kut patterns from the Kuempel Co?

Shaw speedster advert 1924?

That's it. I saw one of these on a TV documentary and couldn't believe how small it was - like a kid's pedal car. I'm pretty sure 2 people would not have fitted in the seats.

Shaw built cycles and motorcycles and offered this "car" 1920-30. Power was by Briggs & Stratton.

Congratulations KW! You're now a Professional.
