Hall between 1949 and 1950 in San Diego, California. It had an all-aluminum body and chassis and an air-cooled 10 hp (7 kW) Onan engine mounted at the back. Normally it would only use a single fluid-drive speed, plus an emergency low gear.[1] HistoryHall had attempted several times to make a flying car, but stuck with a more conventional design for this car. The streamlined styling was considered to be modern and quite appealing, and its tiny wheels made the car look larger than it actually was. It used a large amount of aluminum and plastic to reduce its weight. Its wheelbase was {{convert|100|in|mm|-1}} in length ({{convert|158|in|mm|-1}} all told) and {{convert|50|in|mm|-1}} wide. Only two are known to have been made, one of the coupe and one of the sedan, though a number of photographs exist.[1] Model detailsBody Type – Shipping Weight – Factory Price 2-door Sedan - {{Convert|800|lb|abbr=on}} - $750 USD 2-door coupe - {{Convert|775|lb|abbr=on}} - $750 USD References1. ^1 {{cite book|title=Standard Catalog of American Cars 1946–1975 |edition=4th |first=Ron |last=Kowalke |location=Iola, Wisconsin |publisher=Krause Publications |isbn=0-87341-521-3 |year=1997}} External links
