"Though it never made it past the prototype stage, the Tuscan, capable of climbing a 45-degree hill, featured a 20bhp single-cylinder engine with a four-speed gearbox; a front ski attachment for snow trails; and a detachable headlamp to double as a flashlight. The gyroscope never made it to the Tuscan model pictured here."
