Ever heard of the Davis Motorcar Company?

The local McDonald's has a cruise night every Tuesday night. Nothing real extensive or formal, just 75 or so cars of every style, from Packards and Duesenbergs to hotrods to muscle cars to ratrods to 4x4's to exotics. Many are the same but there are usually a dozen or so different ones into the mix. My two youngest sons and I were coming back from my 7yo's Challenger League baseball game and we decided to pop in.

Came across this Davis. I'd never seen nor heard of them before. There is a Davis Registry website. Apparently built in Van Nuys, CA back in the late 40's. Although it was reported that there were only 17 built but, including 3 military and 2 prototype vehicles, they have registered 18. This one doesn't appear to be registered so I passed the info. on to the site as well as the owner.

Funky, three wheeled car. Sorry about the iPhone pics.
