The door cards are also upholstered in red leather, while the dashboard sports the same yellow as the exterior. Furthermore, this 1938 Bantam Model 60 Roadster provides you with gauges, including a speedometer, fuel level indicator, ammeter and oil pressure gauge.

Engine
The tiny in-line 4-cylinder engine that this 1938 American Bantam Model 60 Roadster packs is a mere 0.75 liters in displacement! Amazing stuff, and it drives the rear wheels through a 3-speed manual transmission. Some research tells us that the engine made around 20 horsepower, which was enough for a 60mph top speed.
