First edition of this scarce dealer promotional sales book together with dealer photograph of the Dale and proposed expanded line-up concept cars -- evidence of one of the most creative cons carried out in southern California during the 1970â€™s. This 3-wheeled streamline car was conceived during the oil embargo by Dale Clifft in his garage using a 305cc Honda Super Hawk engine forks & brakes from another motorcycle and Naugahyde interior licensed as a â€œmotorcycleâ€ and promoted by the creative Geraldine Carmichael a.k.a. Jerry Dean Michael a transgender con artist and star of â€œUnsolved Mysteries.â€ The Dale was reputed to get 70 mpg absorb more impact than a Cadillac without damage and bullet-proof windows with the production models supposedly powered by an 850cc BMW motorcycle engine. The showroom prototype was roped off from potential clients because the wheels were nailed on and the whole scam came apart when The California Corporation Commission began investigating a stock run-up and Car & Driver exposed it as a â€œscamâ€ with a Briggs & Stratton lawnmower motor. Three Dales -- apparently the only ones ever made -- survive today with one in the Smith Collection Museum of American Speed another in the Petersen in Los Angeles and the third privately owned.
