The Vortex is a three wheeled car which is built from plans. That's right; there is no kit, just plans.
Here's a great photo of the late Arvil "Shep" Shepherd's Scorpion (A highly-modified Vortex) and Dan Lenox's Vortex. These are two of the three known Vortex cars which have been completed from the plans.
Here's a link to Dan's FANTASTIC Vortex build-blog, which documents every step of the build process.
Here's a link to Shep's Scorpion Build Pages. This will likely be taken down soon, so check it out while you can.Here's a link to the Vortex Three Wheeled Car Plans.

None of your links to the Vortex builds are functioning! Was particularly interested in Dan Lenox's build. I hope this is merely a "faux pas", as getting this info. out there would probably stimulate potential fellow builders!! Cheers. Gb bg Please change email notification to: 4maranatha@tds.net, Thanx.
Dans website is probably down. I have bit spoken to him in years. Shep was a good friend, he has passed. I have information on these. Let me know what info you are looking for.
Happy to help.
I was able to buy a set of plans in 4/2020. My good friend and I will be doing a tandem build. A lot has changed over the years. Is anyone else interested in a build?
I purchased a set years ago and and missing a few of the sheets.
