Meet the 1944 Brogan Doodlebug, 10 hp. The Doodlebug could achieve a top speed of 45 mph and travel nearly 70 miles on one gallon of gas. What fun! It looks like a Bumper (Dodge 'Em) car.

Leisurely Drive
These kids have been through a lot.
But they also live in a time period where automobiles (among other things) were the next big thing, so I wanted to draw them all having fun driving a vehicle.
The reference picture I used was of a 1909 Locomobile Model 30 Touring, so it's a little bit after their time.
Here's the ink sketch.

People pay big money for this kind of ride, find the details on the C1 below!
Look out for a bonus weekend vehicle post today, it'll be the Piper PA-28-181 Archer II.
I've fixed the images of the cars and removed the incorrect engine from this post, thank you for the corrections.

Hudson Terraplane c.1937
The Hudson Utility Coupe had a 212 cu in (3.5 L) L-head straight-six engine, rated at 96 horsepower, giving the Hudson Terraplane Utility coupe the most power of its class, for that time. Not only did the utility coupe have power, it also had strength, the complete load capacity being rated for a half ton.
Terraplane automobiles gained notoriety for being clocked at 80 mph, which could compete with the new Ford V-8's performance. Within a year, Essex-Terraplane became known simply as the Terraplane.

BREADSWORD got hit with copyright bullshit twice uploading this video, and the algorithm's making the video suffer for it. Even if you're not interested in Lupin III, Ghibli movies, antique cars, classic cinema, or anything BREADSWORD goes over, this is an important video to watch. Also you will make a good boy happy.
