So we're getting gas in Norwalk Ohio on our way to the Michigan ren when

a funny little car putters by. Its gone so quick I don't have time to

identify it. It was certainly unusual. Small as a golf cart and as boxy

as a jeep.



Then another shows up. And another. Then a pack of them. Its like we

were being stalked by an evil heard of clown cars. I managed to snap a

few pics before flagging one down. It seems like this weekend is the big

jamboree for the King Midget, a car that was produced both as a kit and

as a complete vehicle in Athens ohio from the 40's to the 60's. Do a

google search to find their fan club home page and learn more than you

wanted to know about this funky little car.
