Reviving the Comutacar
I found a 1980 Comutacar on CL late last week. As part of documenting where all the various C-Cars (Citicars and newer Comutacars) have gone, I went over to the address to see if it still had a VIN. By the looks of the pictures, there wasn't much there.
After finding the VIN, I told the business that advertised it that it was a 1980 Comutacar, gave a brief history of the cars and bid them good luck with the sale. About an hour later, they called my cell phone and asked if I wanted to have it - I didn't want to see it cut up for the aluminum! Long story short, I put a set of tires from another C-car on the frame, and had it towed from Berkeley to my driveway in Alameda.
Right now it is parked near another 1980 Comutacar (red one in the background).
We'll see how things progress!
