I was very aware of early Baker electric cars, but I somehow missed this piece
of automotive history about the Baker racing efforts.  Amazing.

For those not aware of the history, that style was considered a streamliner until the advent of the fully enclosed cars & the seperation of the lakester & liner by SCTA.

I've been wondering where Sparky got the inspiration for his canopy.
