              Much nicer with the sun but I like the first composition a bit better. Both great shots though.

                After further review, I agree with you.

                              Here is a little bit (although I am not aware of a 750 Suzuki engine in 1972, 3 cylinder or otherwize)




                              Suzuki Go 1972
                              Another design stimulated by boats was Marcello Gandini’s 1972 Suzuki Go, using a three cylinder 750cc motorcycle engine with a five speed gearbox developed by Bertone. Said Gandini “I was inspired by the increasingly popular rubber inflatable dinghy boats.”



                              https://www.hagerty.com/media/news/9-of-bertones-most-bizarre-concept-cars/

                              Boats again influenced members of Bertone’s styling team when it started designing the Suzuki Go. Envisioned as a four-wheeled, go-anywhere Zodiac boat, it was unusual because it wasn’t based on an existing car. Instead, it was created from scratch and powered by a three-cylinder, 750-cc Suzuki motorcycle engine mounted behind the driver’s seat. The instrument cluster sheds light on its two-wheeler roots.

                              Nothing stopped the Go. While it was happy to remain on the pavement, it tackled snowy trails with ease thanks to a set of aggressively-tracked tires, and users could take it on a lake by strapping an outboard motor to the back end. Alternatively, the tailgate doubled as a ramp on which to load a motorcycle or a snowmobile. It’s astonishing to think such a simple car could perform so many tasks.

                              Bertone unveiled the Go at the 1972 edition of the Brussels Motor Show. It remained a one-off; it likely could have been made street-legal with minor changes, but Suzuki had no interest in it.

                                Well the sun came out, the snow stopped (we had about 3 feet in the last 2 weeks) and temps came up to balmy -18C (about 0F) this AM so we had to get and make tracks. Lucky for us it looks like someone was here a few days ago.



                                Bit of a slog from the valley below but the views are always worth it.
