1959 GOGGOMOBIL DART REAR 3/4 VIEW
Palm Springs, CA
The fiberglass-bodied Goggomobil Darts were made in Australia under license to the German "home" company. Developed after WW II, when Europe was in desperate need of efficient personal transportation other than trains, motorcycles, trucks, bicycles and cycle sidecars, many cars like Goggomobil, that is, inexpensive, small, efficient and with good handling above all, sprung up on the continent's highways. Most of them failed for as many reasons as there were car companies at the time, but a few managed to find a niche with the public. Note the right-hand drive configuration on this Aussie-built Goggomobil Dart.
