From the overly fertile mind of the late Stan Mott, who in close collaboration with Piero Martini and the fearless driving styles of Trebor Crunchog managed to get the 47 cc CYCLOPS auto to the peak of racing success burning olive oil. Stan also designed and published a plan for a teeny B-17 that seated two and used 4 VW Beetle engines and a three times normal sized J-3 CUB replica that would have used an R-1340 and cruised at around 85 MPH, all in the pages of AIR PROGRESS back in the 60's-
GOOGLE CYCLOPS and look at Stans wonderful and clever mind-
