Now is that a two wheeled car - or a motorbike with a sterring wheel.

It looks like it might be BMW boxer motorbike engine powered?

I know where you find this name (the place where I took this pic), but that's why this one went directly here.
I have other pics of it and the name of the builder, and that's what I'm looking for.  ;)

I found something like "J.Brady Single" for the inventor, but no name for the car.

I'm looking for the inventor's name, it's not J. Brady Single, but it's not much far from that!

I found it handwritten, do you think it's easy?

Easy probably not, but funny it is!  ;D

This is where I took the picture, and I'm sure Ray has got this article as well.
I found this car in another source, togheter with the name and details, and it's not the same source (PS) with the handwritten scripts, but a reliable book.
I'm asking for the name of this man.

It's not about copyright, but about revealing possible sources...
Look at the first post(s) of each Rookie/Expert/Pro-Section. Those contain a kind of rulebook for autopuzzlers.

TINGLE, Miami, Florida (1939)
J.G. Tingle of Miami called his two-wheeler a cross between a motorcycle and an automobile that combined "the features of the motorcycle, so far as traction is concerned and the thrills of airplane flying because of the easy sway". Embryonic fron fenders concealed small 'landing wheels' to keep the car from toppling over when at a standstill. One might suspect that was something of a problem when the vehicle was moving, too. Tingle did not offer his vehicle on the market.
(Standard Catalog of American Cars)

Well done! Finally another PJ can go to sleep!
