I don't remember what that was called, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't a
Hotshot. When I was a teenager a friend had one sans body, with a tractor
seat and a box bed on back. It was supposed to be a farm utility vehicle,
but he and I used it the way you would use a modern All Terrain Vehicle. It
wasn't very fast, but it was a lot of fun.
