Velorex
Velorex 435 Cabriolet
Velorex was a Czechoslovak maker of light three-wheelers built by the Stránský brothers, who began designing a small three-wheeler in 1936. Its best-known car, the Velorex 16/350, was introduced in 1963 and about 12,000 were built. In 1971 the company turned to a four-wheeler, the Velorex 435-O, which was fitted with a Jawa 350 engine; about 1,380 were made, and it was a commercial failure.
A prototype of a Velorex 435 Cabriolet was presented at the Engineering Fair in Brno in 1959, and only a few zero-series cars were made. For economic reasons the company did not start mass production. The cabriolet’s design was not similar to the 435-O, but it probably used the same technical base.
