It's created by a man called Rust Heinz in 1938, there is only one build. The tests in the windtunnel showed that the car was one of the aerodynamicst of it's time (the 1930's)I did'nt see the movie, but it seems to be the car of the ''Fliying Wombat'' It had 190 hp en get up to speeds as 115 mp/h. (very fast for those standards) Heinz showed his car for the first time at the New York's World Fair in 1939. It was ahead of it's time, couse it had for instance: a cork isolation, for the heat and noise, but it also had a pressure gauge and a heat-under-the-hood gauge. Despite the light alloy body, the car weighed in at a healthy 4565 lb. Not surprising, considering all the insulation, gauges, hydraulics, solenoids,and drinking cabinets! |

I couln't find any image of this incredible car in the film, but I know it exists in DVD. In the meantime, I've found this magazine clip from 1939. http://blog.modernmechanix.com/2006/08/17/is-this-the-motor-car-of-tomorrow/ |

Actually I think it deserves 5 stars for some reasons: - It's unique. - It has a cool fantasy name "Flying Wombat". - It's part of the movie plot. |
