![]() Add 5% inflation to that, it is over 55 Million USD now!!! Wikipedia says: In 1915, Briscoe offered what he called "The First French Car at an American Price." Briscoe claimed that the auto had been designed by a French design studio. It featured a single headlamp in the front, faired into the radiator shell. The auto was priced at US$750.00 but this price did not include a top, windshield, or starter. | |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() This Hindustan Trekker brochure probably dates to 1979. ![]() ![]() ![]() Does anyone remember exactly when these were launched? Also interesting to read that options included 2 petrol engines - the conventional 1489 and also the more powerful 1760cc version. |
