Electric car sells for $165,000

[88V8]

'Additional features include 12 six-volt batteries with an onboard charging system, rear-seat controls with tiller steering, internally expanding rear drum brakes, mechanical and electric driveline brakes, leaf-spring suspension, artillery wheels wearing 33×4½” pneumatic tires, vis-à-vis seating, a combination gauge, and a Waltham eight-day clock.'

I particularly like the point that you have to wind the clock by hand.

Interesting comment that '... the advent of the electric starter for gasoline engines dampened enthusiasm for electric vehicles'...
It had never occurred to me that this was a key factor, but if you have ever started an engine with the starting handle in the depths of winter, it should come as no great surprise.

Oh, and it has five reverse gears.
