I mistook the Mini Bug to be a type of three wheel Bond bug. Just googled the Stimson and that is a bloody cool vehicle. Never seen one before, must have been a lot of fun.
That’s exactly the same type of incident that wrote off my Scooter. I also had a three wheeler for a while before I passed my car test, mine was a Trotter type though.
Takes me back, I had an Enduro 175 mid to late seventies which I bought after a car wrote off my bucket seat Lambretta Li. Traded it for a RD 250 later, which was my favourite bike.
