A distinctive 1955 Messerschmitt KR175, originally produced in Germany during the mid-20th century and now residing in Santa Barbara, California. This unique three-wheeled microcar is notable for its compact size and lightweight design, featuring a single rear wheel and two front wheels arranged under a distinctive teardrop-shaped fiberglass body. The KR175 showcases the ingenuity of its designers with its innovative use of space, seating just two passengers back-to-back within the vehicle's cozy confines.
