World’s Smallest Car
This is a fun story. A man in Britain by the name of Perry Watkins loves cars. So for fun, he designs and builds crazy cars. He built a car that was just 19 inches off the ground and he called it the Flatmobile. It is the world’s lowest car. Now, in his spare time, Watkins created the world’s smallest car called the Wind Up. The Wind Up was actually a children’s toy car that Watkins transformed. The car was called Postman Pat’s car that you can buy for about $450. The car stands at 39 inches tall and 26 inches wide. Watkins gutted the car adding a steel frame to the fiberglass car. The Wind Up is powered by a 150cc single-cylinder engine. It has head lamps, tail lights, windshield wipers, turn signals, and a horn that make it a legal car for the roads. The engine can get about 70 miles per gallon and can go up to 40 miles per hour. It won’t be winning any races, but it would be fine to stroll around the town. It’s not for sale, so if you want one you need to buy the Postman Pat car and then transform it yourself so you to can have the world’s smallest car.
