Created circa 1930s

Created for students at Lane Technical High School in Chicago, this stationary chassis was the first of its kind to teach new drivers about road safety. Students sat in the body mounted on iron legs and operated the steering wheel, brake, gas, and clutch pedals just as in a regular car. This fascinating piece of automotive history is presented in good condition with minor wear throughout.
