Very interesting video for anyone interested in antique cars.

This is the ONLY Adams-Farwell automobile left in existence. They were made
in Dubuque, Iowa, between 1890-1913. This 1906 version has a 50 HP rotary
engine similar to engines in old airplanes. With 50 HP... it probably
really scooted down the road!
