A Refurbished Electric Shopper

I saw this cool little electric vehicle in a neighbor’s garage today. It was called an “Electric Shopper”. It was made in 1960 and could go for 30 miles on a single charge. This one was beautifully refurbished. Not much bigger than a bike.

Ironically, electricity was not “alternative energy” in the 60’s but these little cars were both innovative and cute.

Curious, I did a little research and found this charming vintage ad at www.theinvisibleagent.com.
