Nice, vintage trike literature! Those Tempo designers were lightyears ahead of the American builders with that innovative body style and long wheel base.

Id like to believe the rest of your points, but if you think there have been any quantifiable number of trikes built in Miami, you are incorrect. North Florida, Sure, MIDDLEBURG! Absolutely. Poor folks here drive a Lexus instead of a Mercedes. Not trikes!

Would a VW motor cool itself well enough without the tin even if it was out in the open?

You sir are quite the detective, however my above comment references the Mulholland look(Miami) as the polar opposite to the trike craze(Philly).

Got it. I didnt know where the Miami reference was coming from. Cape Coral is in fact 166 miles away from thie craphole of a city! And yes, I am quite the internet detective! My skills are right up there with the average middle schooler.
