Powel Crosley, a manufacturer of radios and refrigerators, began manufacturing automobiles in 1940. The Crosley cars were tiny, quirky, and not very popular.
The 'Hot Shot' was America's first post-war sports car. With only 26.5 horsepower, the car was not very fast, but it handled well and offered an elemental wind-in-face experience typical of British MG's. Only 2,498 Hot Shots were built between 1948 and 1952. Even though production may have begun in 1948, they were listed as 1949 models. Also, the 2,498 Crosleys produced include both the VC (Roadster) Hotshots and Supersports. Crosley left the car business after 1952.
