My father even owned one maybe 20 years ago. Wow, it was crazy slow and you was supposed to cross your fingers when it was raining... It just tended stopping and refused to start before getting dry. Absolutely amazing!

Man, that must have been terrible, especially when you guys had an important trip to make 😁 I just read that it's a 26 horsepower beast with a top speed of 100 km/h! Did you dad's car have seat belts?

Well, it did have seatbelts as I remember. At least for the front two seats. Backseats... Ugh.. No!
I don't thing it was capable of reaching the 100 km/h. Maybe if the road was going down, yes... Otherwise, sooo difficult!
