Yah this is the best car ever. Then again I am a bit biassed since it was my dad who made it.

As for getting in it, The bubble is on a pair of Linear Actuators so it can be lifted by remote, then you just hope in over the edge. Also the "pull to eject" handle in the bubble (not shown in the video) i a screwdriver that can be used to remove the bubble from the inside in the event that the Actuators break down.

- News 3? It's all about channel 8.
- It looks like it's been updated a bit since the last time I saw it. Too bad your dad wasn't there to be interviewed. I love how they were just left to speculate.

The style makes it look more modern and not something made a long time (I think I remember what it looked like before). When I interviewed your dad for my movie project it couldn't be finished so I couldn't spread more publicity about it.

I must say, nice car. My old Willy's never got on the news in a car show, just war movies.

actually dad had people from both Hot Wheels and Pixar asking him to sign contracts and stuff.

Hot wheels wants to turn it into a model. and Pixar wants to make a animate movie or series about it. Maybe even a live actions Jetsons movie.

Cool. I guess you're dad'll have a very famous car. Make sure to get something that says it's the original, not a copy somebody made to look like it.

Yes, and don't go all hollywood and endorse gun control. Follow the way of the Nuge (Ted Nugent; Rock star). "You can't grill it till you kill it".

I see you guys even have a Rat Fink for the car.
And its not every day you get to drive a car indoors.
Did you guys get an old T-Bird blinker box or a computer chip for the taillights?

That's one cool car there Halfwing.

He had it custom made for him, it is simaler to the blinker box but not actually from a T-Bird.

Same for the bubble, custom made.

Ok. I knew they make a chip for the new mustangs to have the blinkers like a T bird. Wasn't sure if he just put one of those in. And I assumed he got the bubble custom, unless he works in a gumball machine factory.
