    1953 Lusse AutoSkooter
    With the 1950's, style and innovation were the order of the day. Lusse capitalized on this by producing one of their best looking "modern" body styles for the newest Auto Skooter.
    This 1953 model was significantly different in many ways. It was modeled after the popular, full-of-personailty Chevrolets. Lots of gleaming chrome and paint colors such as "Jewel Green" and "Cardinal Red" made these some of the best looking cars since the 1930s models.
    The 1953 would be one of the last of the all-steel construction bodies. The prominent chromed front grille was reminiscent of a big Cadillac; the cars often had nicknames like "fish-faced" and "whale grille".
    After 37 years, Lusse felt the need for a more updated name in order to promote a cutting edge image. They picked the name "Sport Skooter".
    Please note that the AutoSkooter is green/teal in color. The photos make the unit look blue but it is green/teal. May have minor scratches or a slight chip here or there. It is in really nice shape overall. Please feel free to ask for additional photos or any questions that you would like answered! Thank you for your interest!
