Hello everyone,

I don't want to build this vehicle (I don't like the model of the vehicle) but I'm just intrested if this vehicle is really WW1 and if there exists other photo's than the one below. Explaining txt says it is a Scott 3X3 "motorcycle" build in 1915 but I find it looks quite modern (maybe interbellum). I found several sites (Scott, Dutch and Indian sites,...) telling about the same but I didn't found any other picture of this vehicle used somewhere during war (photo's of the Scott Social = civilian version of about the same vehicle are existing) anyone knows something more?

Tks,

Scott is a very old and well known Motorcycle manufacture who produced of all things a watercooled 2 stroke engine which could be relatively easily modified for better preformance, its seems though that the pic is only a prototype and not a production machine but does appear to be 1915 WW1 vintage... very advanced for the time..
