Here is a 1960 FriskySport found in a barn in Michigan. This brings the total number known to 5 in the USA and 15 worldwide. This was the first car built in 1960 with only 5 more before they stopped this model. 29EEA8B9-84E2-40C0-8825-AE4453D84659.jpg
 
Seems there were lots of Frisky models designed back in the day. Here's a FriskySprint - pretty interesting design I'd say.

Could probably fit in the glove box of today's behemoths.

very cool! and to be clear, you own this car? and you will be restoring it? and you will be doing so with lots of pics here?

(please oh please oh please say yes!)
 
Do I have pictures! The body has been removed and the chassis almost finished. The Villiers 3T was missing but I had bought one in Canada then one in Australia about three weeks before this car was found. I have my friends in the UK searching for what spare parts we can find. I will need to replicate the seat and top frame. 1F318B66-A572-4541-9033-368109E124FD.jpeg
