1932 Helicron
In the late 1930s this one-of-a-kind Helicron was placed in a barn and
forgotten. More than six decades later this odd lost little gem was
rediscovered, rebuilt, and reintroduced to the world. Although the
manufacturer is unknown, it's believed that this car was built in France
1932. Following the first World War it was not uncommon for recently displaced
airplane engineers to look towards the automobile industry for employment.
As in this example, a few entrepreneurs developed propeller-powered
cars with the notion that propeller power was an efficient means of moving a
vehicle.On this car, when the wooden propeller is spinning at full speed and
efficiently, this little 1,000-pound boat-tailed skiff can hit freeway speeds
exceeding 75 mph. This is the one and only Helicron in existence, owned by
Lane MotorMuseum in Nashville , TN.
