The Aero was a Czechoslovak automobile, manufactured between 1929 and 1947 by a well-known aircraft and car-body company owned by Dr. Kabes in Praha-Vysocany. Now Aero Vodochody produces aircraft only.

The last model, the Type 50, also front-wheel-drive, had a 1997 cc four-cylinder 50 PS (37 kW two-stroke engine with alloy cylinder head and was capable of reaching 78 mph (125 km/h).

After the war the company made the Type 30 until 1947. About 500 were produced with 200 going to France and 100 to Belgium. Design work had been done on a new post war range which would have had hydraulic brakes and four-speed gearboxes, but they did not go into production. Aero disappeared when the Czechoslovak motor industry was nationalised.

Pas mal! Ca fait très Figoni & Falaschi!
Mais de plein face on dirait que c'est une caisse de Dodge 41 posée sur un châssis de Ford T!
Faut bien pouvoir braquer les roues malgré les fender skirts avant, me direz vous!
Mais faut avouer qu'avec une voie 70cm moins large que la carrosserie (données techniques), donc 35 cm de moins de chaque côté, quand t'as ça dans ton rétro, ça doit faire étrange!!
Mais c'est une belle auto, même si je n'en voudrais pas! C'est pas mon genre de caisse.

Des lignes superbes à la Saoutchik.
