Not having a pedal boom comprising 1/3 of the LOA extending from the front does open up a vast array of body shell possibilities, here's a few random examples of possibilities jus' for the heck o'it lol;

The new edition of the venerable Morgan & a vintage Morgan nekkid for the world to see;


If old-school isn't yer thing, there's things like this from Blue Sky Design LLC;


Gettin' a touch radical, there's the destinyparts.com carbon fiber Cyclone;



...but the possibilities are ofc unlimited by anything save physics & the imagination lol;



The Velomobile world has a plethora of body designs/syles to match ones every need..! The World Speed records they are setting with these new body styles are incredible, so fascinating to dream about! :{)
