Peregrine P292R

The Helron Curlander is a large pickup truck that has been produced by Helron since 1967. It is known as the Helron Richter outside of Northern America

Peregrine produced a performance trim called the P292R for the 2nd Generation

**1st Gen:**

   the First generation of the Curlander is also the one that lasted the least amount of time and effected the world the least. It was introduced in 1967 and was a pretty well received farm truck. Unfortunately due to the 1972 Oil Crisis, the Curlander was quickly pulled off the shelves. This generation of Curlander has famously become a collectors item now due to a lot of them being scrapped.

**2nd Gen:**

Helron produced the second generation Curlander starting in 1985. This was the first time the Curlander name had been used since 1971. As the brand had recovered from the Oil crises and the 2nd Gen Helron Lance had proven that they didn't need smaller engines, they were able to stably release this truck. Powered by a range of I6 and V8s.

This truck is famous due to how unkillable it is, as the truck lasted 30 years without a replacement generation.

1996s The Long Road features a custom Helron Curlander with a Rammins I6 Diesel. This car has influenced truck styling and one of the cars that was used in the movie has recently sold for around $65,000

Dwaynewright Go!

A 2000 Go!, Front View.

The Dwaynewright Go! was a eco hatch produced from 2000 to 2004 and sold from 2000 to 2004. The vehicle was aimed towards the younger generation of buyers and more economy-minded people. The vehicle was not a success and was put out of production after just 4 years, citing it's ugly design.
Sando Ethos Fourth Generation

The fourth generation of the Sandō Ethos, like every generation before it, came in 2 variants: sedan and wagon. The sedan is much more common in places like North America and Asia, but in Europe the wagon variant was far more common. The transmission was either a 4 speed automatic or a 5 speed manual. However, the manual was widely preferred over the automatic, even though the company switched to a different 4 speed automatic that worked far better than the former 4 speed auto (used in third and second generations) This version of the Ethos was really just a facelift with more power, as not much was changed besides the styling and, of course, a small power increase. While the third generation had 133 horsepower, this generation came with 157 horsepower.

Di Inferi Meliora

Di Inferi Meliora

The Di Inferi Meliora was a supercar produced by manufacturer Di Inferi from 1968 through 1970. It received the nickname "Ornitorinco Assassino" (Killer Platypus) among drivers, as its sectioned front was reminiscent of a platypus' beak.

## History and design

The Meliora was envisioned as a road-going homologated race car using the same body as the Di Inferi Veleno, however, it later evolved into an entirely separate vehicle, retaining only the general body shape.

A variety of engines were tested, though the choice fell to a 6.77 liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the car. This large, powerful engine made the Meliora a handful - the car's manual strongly advised against letting inexperienced drivers operate it. The body was made out of fiberglass, while the chassis was made of steel. This kept weight down to 1335kg, while the open nature of the rear let the Meliora use wide, staggered rear tires for extra grip. Additionally, the Meliora used gullwing-type doors, hinged on the roof.

The interior was considered barbaric, even considering the standards of the time. While some extras such as a radio and air-conditioning were optional, the Meliora had very little in the way of driver comforts. Bucket seats were the only option, the steering wheel was non-collapsible and it did not have power steering. Regardless, the interior was noted for being exceptionally driver-focused, allowing for relatively good front visibility and ease of access to buttons and dials.

The Meliora entered production in mid-1968, being assembled at Di Inferi's headquarters in Ravenna, Italy. Production lasted just two years, ending in September 1970.

## Controversies

As the Meliora was so difficult to operate safely, it underwent a number of controversies.

Questions were asked as if Di Inferi should even be allowed to sell such a vehicle with such a powerful engine and so little in the form of safety to the public, citing the lack of any safety measurements other than seatbelts. The cabin size was small and the car was low in overall height, leading to the driver and passenger almost lying down while operating it. The Meliora was also famously rear-heavy, leading to accidental snap-oversteer being common.

Visibility was not good, with the cabin being so narrow that the body stuck out over a foot on each side. Finally, the gullwing doors made exit of the vehicle very difficult if flipped on its roof, adding to the already lengthy list of safety concerns. These issues, along with high production cost and subsequent high price, led to the Meliora leading a relatively short lifespan of just two years.

However, near the end of the 90s, it declined in popularity, and once again, it suffered the fate of discontinuation. Unfortunately, it was never revived for a seventh generation, finally being put to rest after 38 years. The car was the most advanced Micro yet, and went through several facelifts. In 1998 a third brakelight was added to the design, required by law.

The car was the safest of all the generations, with hydraulic power steering and ABS, as well as a driver side airbag.

Some say that it is the Successor to the Bez-Monotune, but the Bez-Monotune is classified as a E-Segment. In 1997 rumor was said of the Cinco's discontinuation, but this went silent until 1998 When Adam C. Hunter, the CEO of Askor at the time, announced that the Cinco was to be discontinued for a new D-Segment meant to compete more directly with the Chevrolet Malibu and Ford Taurus. In Europe the model was named Equip, but with the model being more American focused, the model sold terrible and was replaced with a second gen Equip meant to focus towards the European market.
Enuly Y6

a Pre-Facelift Y6, note the design

The Enuly Y6 Was a subcompact hatchback manufactured by Enuly Motors from 2011-2018. It succeeded the Enuly Y5 made from 1999-2010. The Car was known for being a direct copy of the Omota Poke Q;70, with rear styling similar to the Omota-Owned Japanese division's Tokis GlowStik.

## Design

The Dimensions were an exact replica of the Omota Poke, with styling on the car (Excluding the back) being identical to the Poke. The rear styling was a copy of the Tokis GlowStik, a car which had been discontinued 7 years prior to the Y6's release

### 2013 Facelift

The Car was facelifted in 2013, as a 2014 MY. The Front Fascia and rear bumper were redesigned. The engine range was not changed.

The Rear remained visually similar to the GlowStik while the front no longer resembled the Poke.

### 2017 Facelift

The Y6 was facelifted again in 2017, with a new front fascia, redesigned headlights and taillights (casing remained the same), and other minor improvements. The 1.8 Liter I3 was removed in favor of the 1.6 Liter i3 and 1.8 Turbo. A new 6 Speed Automatic was introduced and a redesigned dashboard. The rear of the 2017-18 Y6 still resembled the GlowStik, with minor changes to the taillights and bumper. Sales ended in February 2019, due to not meeting sales requirements. This also meant the absence of a Y-Series hatchback until the introduction of the Y10-5 in September 2023.

## Body and chassis

### Class

Compact Car / Small Family Car (C)

The Aether Sirius is a compact car (C-Segment) manufactured by Aether, launched in response to the popularity of hatchback cars in the UK. It was introduced at the start of 1979 as a 3 door hatchback, later joined by a 5 door in 1981, a 4 door saloon with the second generation in 1986, and 5 door estate with the third generation.

It has risen to become one of the most popular cars in its segment, currently on its 7th Generation introduced in 2021.

## First Generation (1979 - 1988)

The First Generation Sirius was launched in 1979 as a 3 door hatchback only. At the launch it came with three engine choices and trims, all the W4 unit introduced back in 1967, there was the 1.3, the 1.6 as well as the uprated twin-carb 1.6 used in the hot GT1600 model producing 102bhp. The GT1600 was made to take on the popular new market for high-performance hatchbacks such as the Volkswagen Golf GTI. In 1980, two new bodystyles were released, the 5 door hatchback and the car-derived van. With the introduction of the van brought the 1.8 diesel engine, this was also available with a turbocharger as of 1984. The Sirius was took over by the Mk2 model in late 1985, however, the van would carry on production for another 3 years until it was also dropped from the line-up.

## Second Generation (1985 - 1992)

In late 1985, the second generation Aether Sirius was introduced. At the time the design was seen as controversial with its 'jellymold like' aerodynamic styling seen on the Ford Sierra back in 1982. In Early 1986, the Sirius line-up was joined by the 1.8 RSX which tried to fill the gap left by the GT1600. The 1.8 RSX however didn't feature fuel injection which by 1986 was a must have in a hot-hatchback and as a result only a few thousand were ever sold, Aether responded to this in 1987 with the GT-Turbo EFi, this produced 137bhp from it's HX-Series 1.8 litre Turbocharged engine. In 1989, the Sirius recieved a facelift which introduced the use of catalytic-converters across the whole range, this effected the performance of the GT-Turbo which had it's power dropped to 131bhp. In 1992 to mark the end of Mk2 Sirius production, a limited edition model was launched called the GTX which used the 1.8 Turbo engine with power boosted to 152bhp, only 500 models were produced.

1992 Aether Sirius GTX Limited Edition
Fifth Generation (2010-2015)

The third generation of the Sandō Ethos was something different than the other generations had done. Instead of implementing a station wagon into the mix, Sandō added a crossover variant. This variant was called the Cross-X, and despite how popular crossovers are today, and the increase in space, the Cross-X did not sell nearly as well as the sedan. People have said that it did now use good materials and rusted very easily. The Cross-X was discontinued in 2013 due to poor sales.

This generation was a complete overhaul of everything the fourth generation had to offer. It had completely new bodywork, a new engine, chassis, and a different transmission option. The 5 speed manual was still used, and it was the same one from the fourth generation, but now you had a 6 speed automatic that you could choose over the manual. This transmission was far better than the transmissions the older cars were using; it shifted far better and was much more reliable. For this reason, more automatics were sold than manuals, unlike the previous generations.

Iskra Sperantia

Iskra Sperantia

6997cc V8 - 350 bhp (261 kW)

5-spd Manual

The Iskra Sperantia is a performance four-door sedan produced by manufacturer Iskra between 1969-1977. Following up the two-door Canaria, the Sperantia opted for a larger body as well as larger engine options to solidify its place in the luxury-performance market. Even with strong incentive by Iskra and considerable funding put into it, the Sperantia became too expensive to be viable as a mass-market vehicle. As a result, just 412 units were built during its lifespan.

Deciding to continue the legacy of the the luxury-oriented Canaria, the Sperantia was conceptualized in the mid-1960's. The Canaria's design was becoming outdated, and boxy, wedgy lines were popping up as the new go-to style. As such, the Sperantia opted for a very wedge-shaped design.

The Sperantia was available with a variety of engines and transmissions, each customizeable to the customer's demand. The interior was hand-stitched from leather, and the engines were sourced from Serpent. The automatic transmission-equipped cars (and especially the 3-speed) were criticized for their slow acceleration and long space between gears - the 3-speed automatic model taking 9.7 seconds to 60 mph. This led to very low orders for the automatic units, and the majority produced used the 5-speed manual. It was also available in right-hand drive, though the majority of models produced were left-hand drive and never left mainland Europe. That being said, some were sold to the US, with US-destined models after 1973 having large springed bumpers to comply with regulations.

Due to its high development cost and subsequent price, the Sperantia was mostly overshadowed by other cars in its already niche market section. Production ended in 1977, with 412 units produced.
TB Ravioli

The TB Ravioli *Super Economy* was a failed economic minivan. Slow, mashed together, fat, and ugly, almost no one bought the cars. The engine of the vehicle was changed right before production (as the original engine was deemed unsafe), as a way to cut costs. Production was from January 15, 2018, until June 4, 2018, when the vehicle was shut down by the government with a cease and desist order.

## Performance

### Top speed

~ 36.1 - 37 mph

The vehicle itself was deemed as the ugliest car in the world. It had very unique styling, with one central headlight and taillight, the infamous, "Secondary Headlights", side ventilation, rear-side-stack exhausts, and, (deemed by the public) "donut wheels".

The vehicle was supposed to be an economic minivan, with 9 seats, good fuel economy, and rugged enough to be used in impoverished and/or underdeveloped areas.

The RAVIOLI came in 3 colors:

* Green
* Red
* Purple

The name is an acronym, meaning:

Roomy Aerodynamic Van Induced On (the topic of) Living In (poverty), or, RAVIOLI, for short.

The highest rating the vehicle ever received was 1.5 stars out of 5 for the idea.

In response to the failure of the RAVIOLI, TB Automotive started production of the Geo, which was much better, and moderately successful, with a better, I4 engine.

Omota Forista (Global)

The Omota Jump was a Compact sedan manufactured by Omota Motor Corporation from 1997-2007. It was introduced to as a successor to the previous Omota Elville compact sedan, which had been suffering from low sales, due to its outdated styling and underperformance compared to Japanese imports and American compacts alike.

The Jump was made and developed in collaboration between Omota HQ (NA) Omota Europe (Previously Omota U.K) and Omota SA. After development it was shown across five different Auto Shows each located in the desired country of production. It later was manufactured in 5 factories. Sales started and ended at different times. a Refresh/Facelift was introduced in 2002, and later another in 2008 for SA and China.

## Model History

Serpent Jubilant SK WSR

WSR SK Group A

The Serpent Jubilant SK WSR is a series of tuned performance vehicles manufactured by Serpent and tuned by WSR on the base on the SK generation Jubilant.

## WSR SK Group A

Designed by Ken Callahan of WSR, the SK Group A was designed to satisfy Group A homologation regulations. As a result, the exterior of the war was extensively redesigned with aerodynamics in mind. It was produced between 1985 and 1986, in a run of 500 units to satisfy the homologation for Group A racing in Australia. Though extensively modified by WSR, the car carried Serpent badges because of regulations, and was subsequently mostly referred to as a Serpent.

The WSR Group A features a half-closed front grille, leaving only the bottom open strip for improved airflow over the cabin. Additionally, the bumper vent was made larger, and the hood received a large bulge. Furthermore, the car's stance was widened somewhat and fitted with a side skirt kit as well as a large wing encompassing the entire trunk area. Finally, rear louvers were fitted.

The WSR Group A was only available in blue, yellow and red, though most units produced were painted blue to imitate the race cars.

The engine was a heavily modified 5.9 liter V8, fitted with a Wulff Twin Turbo system. It was rated as producing 240 horsepower - though higher figures have been reported from dyno tests. It was available with a 5-spd manual transmission, and a 4-spd automatic was available as an option.

Zwickau Metallwerke

One of various stamp-like logos used by ZM in the 1930's.

Zwickau Metallwerke was a German manufacturer of various automotive products, such as specialized streamliner race cars as well as various land speed record cars. In its later years, it was relegated to producing army trucks, before it was abandoned in 1945 and dissolved in 1946.

## Synopsis

Aiming to impress the international racing scene, Zwickau Metallwerke was founded in 1933 with the specialized target of building high-grade racing cars. While struggling some in its initial years, ZM eventually started producing exceptionally capable cars, and quickly became a major contender in the Grand Prix world.

## 1933-35

Initially, much time and resources went directly to prototyping and testing. While the company has many talented engineers and designers, it took time for coordination to get to a workable level.

## 1936-40

As the 30's wore on, ZM began placing more of a focus on streamliner cars, and land speed record vehicles.

## 1941-46

At the outbreak of World War II, development of race cars at Zwickau Metallwerke was halted. Operations were renamed to Zwickau Waffenwerke, and the company was relegated to producing trucks for the military. However, due to its inexperience producing heavy vehicles, production was slow and marked with issues. While the factory escaped allied bombing, there was little to no reason to restart the company as much of the reason for its initial inception was not profit-oriented. As such, the factory was sold off and the company dissolved in 1946.
Rigel Trës

## Powertrain

### Engine

1.2 Three-cylinder carburetor gasoline engine with 50 hp1.4 Diesel three-cylinder injection engine with 70 hp

### Transmission

4 gear manual

Rigel in 1991 launched its first urban model, a 3.3-meter vehicle and a three-cylinder engine, called “Trës”. This denomination due to its 3-cylinder propellant and the Spanish word “tres” which means three the total number of cylinders.

### Facelift 1994

Now in the fall of 1994, the Facelift of the Trës is launched. These are the new keys to success:

**Size:** The car has increased its length by 10 centimeters, creating a more spacious cabin for its occupants. In total, its 3.4 meters make it a perfect urban car, easy to park and light.

**Engine:** Since its creation, the range has only had an innovative three-cylinder engine, thus reducing its weight, its fuel consumption and being more respectful of the environment. We can choose gasoline varieties from 50 to 80 horsepower and a single 70 horsepower diesel.

**Changes:** The new front and rear optics are more adapted to a segment A market and have been made observing the work of the Japanese designer Hideo Kodama (creator of the Corsa B, Micra 2, Mazda 121). This gives the car an oriental touch that the brand seeks to open new markets such as Japan. Finally the total redesign of its dashboard, placing the odometer in a central position above the center console, a design exercise.

### **Verions and Engines**

* **Driver:** The most urban, access engine to the range with 50 hp and all the essential comforts for day to day. Its two-tone rims and its distinctive blue along the bumpers indicate that we are dealing with the Driver, the most economical of the range, for those who want to enjoy driving around the city and forget about the rest. 1.2 Three-cylinder carburetor gasoline engine with 50 hp and a 4-speed manual gearbox.

Sirius BR-3

A Sirius BR-3

The Sirius BR-3 was a supercar produced by manufacturer Sirius Aeromotive between 1989 and 1993. It was produced in extremely low numbers, most of which with a 5-Speed manual transmission, though some were equipped with an optional 3-Speed automatic. The BR-3 continued building on the platform of the BX-2, with improved handling, aerodynamic efficiency and engine internals.

## History

Continuing on the base of the BX-2, itself based on the B-Series, the BR-3 introduced in 1989 and was the first Sirius to be widely recognized as a serious competitor in the supercar field. However, due to low production numbers, the BR-3 was never able to keep up with its Italian competitors in popularity.

## Details

While distinctly a Sirius in design, the BR-3 lacked some details often seen on other models. It was significantly more rounded than the earlier BX-2, and there was no split side window - instead opting for one single unbroken piece. Furthermore, the nosecone seen on later models had not yet been implemented, resulting in a large, flat nose with large foglights, turn signals and a grille with horizontal bars. Additionally, the BR-3 was noted for its extremely low-slung body kit which made navigating curbs and inclines difficult.

## Production

The BR-3 entered production in 1989, and was produced in low volume till its replacement in 1993, the WR-2. 22 units were produced, most in different colors and specifications. 16 units were equipped with the 5-speed manual, while the remaining 6 had a 3-speed automatic. Sirius reportedly did not struggle with producing the car itself, but did experience financial issues due to low sales, which in turn made production very slow.

## In popular culture

The BR-3 was the first Sirius to gain a following, showing potential as a genuine supercar. As a result, it was featured in several pieces of media.

The BR-3 was a cut vehicle in Racing Ambition, though it was made playable in Racing Ambition 2. It would later return in Racing Ambition 7XE.

A yellow BR-3 was featured in the film Exterminator II (1991).

The model would be assembled in Syracuse along with the new Brio Festive!. in late 2020 Brio announced the XR67 would be discontinued in North America due to slow sales and poor competition with the Subaru Outback, the new Brio Spree full-size SUV would replace the XR67. In Europe the XR67 was facelifted for the second time in 2022. On May 24th, 2023 Brio announced the XR67 would end production in Europe, due to slow sales, and Brio's plan to replace the XR67 with a electric wagon, rather the a internal combustion engine.
Zenshi Grandea

The Grandea logo as of 2020.

Grand Tourer (1976-Present)

The **Zenshi Grandea** (戦士・グランダイヤ, *Senshi Gurandaiya*) is a line of compact and compact executive cars developed by NSJK, which then transformed to Zenshi in 1971. One of the most well-known nameplates alongside the Axia, the Grandea has now spanned twelve generations within over sixty years.

The name *Grandea* derives from the latin *"Grande,"* meaning *"more,"* where the name originated from a board meeting when it came to discussing NSJK's lineup at the time. One of the members then said *"People are wanting NSJK, so we should build up NSJK more."* This then came to the creation of the Grandea.

Ever since its creation, the Grandea followed the same principle of a front-engine, rear wheel drive base layout, comfort, flexibility, and driving pleasure.
Sprint

Sprint was a American vehicle manufacturer that was owned by Omota Motor Corporation from 1996 to 2013. It was founded on June 23, 1996 to allow more variation among Omota's vehicle selections. The brand mostly offered Sedan's, and among we're mostly sedans or rebadged vehicles. Originally planned to continue on, Sprint was supposed to be one of 3 surviving brands, the other 2 being Omota (vehicles), and Inertia. Around November 2013, with Tokis planning to end all operations on December 2nd, 2013, Omota swiftly changed to keep operations in Japan rather than a straggling American division with declining sales. And on November 19, 3 days before all Sprint operations were removed, Omota announced it's decision to cancel the Sprint brand, and join the other 2, Stretch, and Rizer, in defunction.
Severin Sanremo

1963 Severin Sanremo 1300

The Severin Sanremo is a small sports car produced by French manufacturer Severin between 1960 - 74. Originally branded as a compact sporty take on the Severin SV4, the Sanremo over time evolved into a separate entity entirely.

## History

The Sanremo was conceptualized in the late 1950's, as the European public's willingness to purchase sportier vehicles was mounting. As cars became a status symbol, Severin opted to take a share of the market. Using the same engine as the SV4, the Sanremo was prototyped as a very compact, driver-focused sportscar. Using such a small engine meant weight was kept down, with some models weighing as little as 580kg.

Introduced in 1960, the Sanremo became an immediate hit. Its relatively high price meant sales were low, but the low production cost meant profit returns were high. While originally only intended as a road car, the Sanremo was entered into multiple rally events by private teams.

## Body and chassis

### Layout

MR

The Sanremo became extremely popular in motorsport through the 1960's, especially in rally. It was favored among both drivers and teams because of its lightness, agility, simplicity, and subsequent ease of repair and maintenance. It won several rallies between its inception in the early 1960's and into the early 1970's, when it was eclipsed by other similar compact sportscars such as the Di Inferi Mithra.

The *Sanremo Rallye* was introduced in 1964, as a factory-built hardcore, lightweight version of the Sanremo. Featuring a largely unmodified drivetrain, the Rallye featured a spartan interior and general weight reduction. It became immediately popular in rally, as very few modifications were needed in comparison to the earlier road-focused version. The most apparent feature of the Rallye were the very small wheels, measuring at just 530mm in diameter. The small wheels were fitted in order to help lower the car without extensive modification to the suspension, as well as decreasing the rotational speed of the wheels, subsequently being able to run the car on closer gears.

In 1965, less than a year after its introduction, a Sanremo Rallye driven by Dominic Morgantini was involved in an accident when the vehicle slipped on a streak of black ice at the 34th annual Monte Carlo rally. The car was approaching a left-hand hairpin when it hit the ice unexpectedly, proceeded to skid into a tall stone banking at approx. 40 miles per hour, causing extensive damage to the car and severely injuring Morgantini as well as the co-driver. He would later make a full recovery, and go on to become successful within various motorsports.

This accident caused bad press for Severin and especially towards the Sanremo - although the car's layout and chassis was unrelated to the cause of the accident, it was harshly criticized for its extremely compact size as well as its possibly dangerous tendency to snap oversteer when lifting off the throttle when cornering. Regardless, the Sanremo would continue production and would become especially successful in the late 1960's.

### Owners

Jacob Lynk

**Trojent** is a **German** **automotive manufacturer** founded in **1978** by **Jacob Lynk**. Trojent has been selling all of their models **nearly worldwide, excluding the South American and African market due to very low demands.** The main Trojent headquarters are in **Villingen-Schwenningen** which is roughly 118 km away from Stuttgart.

Trojent currently has 5 production plants located in: *Freiburg im Breisgau -* *Germany, Timișoara - Romania, London - United Kingdom, Sydney - Australia and Phoenix, AZ - America*

## History

*Trojent was founded by Jacob Lynk in 1978 in Villingen-Schwenningen, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. Lynk's main goal was to create reliable, cost friendly and elegant cars for anyone and everyone to afford. Ranging from small and economy friendly coupes and hatchbacks all the way to heavy duty and robust trucks and vans, Trojent has whatever you desire. There have been a lot of frequent changes during the early days of Trojent mainly being the naming of all the models available. Instead of using conventional surnames for the models, Lynk has come up with the idea to simplify the model names to strictly be the initials of whatever the said model is supposed to be followed by the year it was designed in, e.g "CH-90" = **Compact Hatch - 1990**.*

*Since 1996, Lynk's grandson Christian D. Lynk has been the CEO and chief designer of Trojent and is also known as "C.L. Design". The design change ever since Christian was ordered to become chief designer has been Trojents biggest positive impact in sales and popularity, featuring simplistic yet overexaggerated looks especially with all 2021 - Present cars with their massive grilles, dynamic yet sharp bodylines and elegant interiors.*

*Partnered with Elysion, a Japanese eco-friendly manufacturer, Trojent has been making very efficient and reliable engines with Elysions assistance.*

*Additional notes:* ***In 2023 the new "CupSport" subbrand was officially founded which is made and powered by Trojent. CupSport consists of high performance vehicles which are subsequently used for race cars aswell. The first usage and introduction of the "CupSport" name and brand was on the LS-11 which included an additional high performance CupSport configuration. It was deemed an 'one off' production model at the time simply due to high production costs.***

## Additional Models

***Additional info:** The "C-005" name originated as an inspiration from the Halley Labs/LapFox Trax alias known as "HALLEY HARD SOUND UNIT", which consists of 3 members which are tagged "**C**ERV**001**, **C**ERV**002** and **C**ERV**003**".*
