If the kind of car someone buy says a lot about them, what would this pre-war cycle car say about its owner?
Probably that the person prefers to commute as dangerously as possible, they are simply insane or, maybe, a mixture of both.
Regardless, what you are looking at is an IMP Cyc…
Man, that thing just has buckets of style. I am not so sure about the exposed belt and safety, but it sure looks damn cool.
I want to know who did the brick work behind it, WOW!
Ditto on the brickwork: since when do they do columns like that in brick?? Anyway, the car is amazing and who doesn't want an exposed drive belt next to their bodies spinning wildly at speed? I like the look of the car but it needs an LS. 
In reply to Colin Wood :
I've always loved the story behind the famous Bloody Mary cycle car: "It was, as Bolster once wrote, built by two schoolboys in 1929 '…with the object of driving around a field as dangerously as possible'.
That variable friction drive is just like the one in my snowblower, which is prone to slipping in high gear when I unleash the full fury of 8 HP on it.
Man's got taste. AND skillz!
I'd drive the hell out of that thing!
I've driven dumber stuff. Why not?
In reply to dculberson :
The belt is outside the passenger compartment, so it's safe...enough.
Gonna die anyway. Might as well go out doing something fun!
It costs just $375! Read all about it here => https://dc.library.northwestern.edu/items/79867ad2-8196-457e-88ff-0a109356f2cf
I rode bicycles on the road for 20 years and raced them for 15 of those twenty...these days I wouldn't ride anything resembling a bike on the roads!
