Aerodynamic
automobile
drives into
the future
(Contmumfedrom Page i)
a University of Chicago business
graduate who handles the Aero's finan-
ces, are looking for investors to get the
Aero on the production line.
The Amicks say they have a few
people interested, and they have for-
med a company, Tritan Ventures, to
sell stock in the Aero. But with today's
rough economy, investors are not
willing to take many chances and Jim
Amick admits itis hard to get people in-
terested enough to invest money in the
Aero.
If the vehicle does make it to the
production line, Amick expects to sell it
for around $4,000. He is not worried
about how the unusual two-person
front-back seating arrangement will be
received. "I think it will not be a fatal
flaw," Amick said.
The Aero 135 is designed to be a low
maintenance auto with long-lasting
stamina. "It has an all-fiberglass body
that won't rust and all the mechanical
parts are enclosed," Amick said.
Amick is especially proud of the
Aero's safety features. "The narrow
front end and the wedge shape (of the
Aero's body) are designed to make it
hard to collide head-on into other
vehicles or telephone poles," Amick
said. "It will glance off them instead."
In case of collision, the Aero "has a
lot of crush distance" in the front and
on the sides to fold up and protect the
occupants during a crash, Amick said.
The Aero's engine is in the back and it
has rear-wheel drive. And the 'Luke
Skywalker' windshield "has no corner
posts" to block the driver's vision,
Amick said.
Amick admits that he is trying to sell
a new car at the "wrong time." But he
and his son Doug hope that the Aero's
aerodynamic design improvements,
the high gas efficiency, and the safety
features will be attractive to investors
and consumers who are willing to move
"into the future."
