It was fun watching the youtube video linked off that page and seeing Bob again... Watching the next video that Youtube popped up "Citicar Cruise to Bob's", it struck me that my other car--a Smart ED--is pretty much the modern day version of the Citicar. It even has plastic body panels.
Yes indeed. The Pivco CitiBee is another example that carried this work forward.
Bob's whole point was that the perfect is the enemy of the good. You can do 80% of the job for 20% of the cost. And that 80% is good enough to make a fine daily driver.
KISS -- Keep It Simple, Stupid. Make it easy to build, easy to fix. Get off the merry-go-round of expensive cars that depreciate fast, wear out, and you can't fix. Save your money for more important things.
