Amazing 1917 electric car visits Mission Central

 

When the Honorable Missionary Dr. John Nikodym called from Red Cloud, Nebraska we had NO IDEA what he was bringing with him on his trip to the world famous Mission Central! 

We knew that he and his friend, Missionary Myron Smith were going to stop for a tour and visit at the Lord’s Mission Central, but had ABSOLUTELY no idea what they would have with them. 

Yes, we had the privilege of taking these two missionary’s picture in front of our Boss here, but when we went down to look in the trailer that they were pulling we had never, never seen anything like it!  A 1917 Electric Car in absolutely MINT CONDITION.  We had the privilege of having a ride in this car, and even Maxine had the privilege of taking a ride also…and her only comment was, “This is about the cutest thing I’ve ever seen!”

Here you see the car by the Mission Central sign with John and Myron and also Maxine next to this very, very, very rare piece of American History, and boy, you couldn’t hear a sound when it ran!  ALL ELECTRIC and ran on 14 six volt batteries!  It was something we won’t soon forget!
