According to Chris, the car was used as an elec on campaign for Richard Ha ield and it became known as
the "Bricklin Elec on." As soon as the elec on was won, Malcolm came out and stated that he was going
to need another $14 million to con nue produc on and that was the beginning of the end. On the day that
the opposi on party shut down the produc on, Malcolm said he had back-orders for 40,000 cars but they
couldn't meet the produc on numbers.
In the end 2,865 Bricklins were made over a two year period. This year is the 40th anniversary of the car. The
older genera on looks at it with scep cism but it s ll fascinates the young.
