Advance Auto Body Works of Los
Angeles - ARROWHEAD - Los Angeles, California - (1936) - The Arrowhead was
designed by W. Everett Miller and was built by the Advance Auto Body Works
of Los Angeles as a promotional car for the Arrowhead Spring Water Company.
Just the one vehicle was produced at a cost of $8,000. It carried a V-8
engine that was mounted at the rear, with a standard transmission and torque
tube drive. A three-wheeler, the Arrowhead was similar to the Dymaxion built
by Buckminster Fuller several years previously. The car drove through the
two front wheels and was steered through the single one at the rear. When
introduced, it was referred to as the "car of 1960." The car reportedly
remains extant. - Advance Auto Body – Los Angeles, CA (1950s)
