Forklift? Forklift. I had never found any reason to get the least bit excited about a forklift, at least not until I ran across Barry Seel’s photos of his Transitier on the Crosley Gang mailing list recently (right around the same time I spotted the Gasporter photos we ran yesterday—I’m just making this a Crosley-powered week).

I don’t know if this is a sign of the times or what—even hot rods are going micro. The seller doesn’t mention the displacement of this Crosley’s miniature 70 hp four-banger, but claims that the power-to-weight ratio on this tiny ride gives it the power equivalent of a "300 hp sports car." That’d supposedly put it nearly on par with our Bullitt Mustang. Which do you think would win in the quarter-mile?
