Amazing how many of the early machines survived WWII!!!  Also agree on the efforts to transport the un-mobile/wheel-less industrial machinery to the show!

In Post #2 there is a trailer with pedal cars.  There is a larger car with pneumatic tires, it has  SIX on the grill.  Does anyone know anything about this toy/car ???

It's a Citroen, and I'm sure it's an electric car. The British royal family had one, and I think they've still got it. I have a feeling that they may have been built by Citroen? I don't know much more, sorry. This isn't the Royal car.

A bit more info; there was an article in The Automobile magazine many years ago about these. They mentioned the car owned by the Royal famliy, and how they had it since the 20's, but was later rebodied as a Daimler. Here's a video.
