History of this Vehicle

Plans for this Vehicle

In the late 1930s this one of a kind Helicron was placed in a barn and forgotten. More than six decades later this odd lost little gem was rediscovered, rebuilt, and reintroduced to the world. Although the manufacturer is unknown, it is believed that this car was built in France 1932. Following the first World War it was not uncommon for recently displaced airplane engineers to look towards the automobile industry for employment. As in this example, a few entrepreneurs developed propeller powered cars with the notion that propeller power was an efficient means of moving a vehicle. This is the one and Helicron in existence, owned by Lane Museum in Nashville, TN.
