Mr S. and I have been calling the future "The world of Next Tuesday" for ages because of an old Ren and Stimpy cartoon. (yes, you do have to sit through an ad. Sorry) So, it only seems right to call these old futuristic concept cars - The world of Last Tuesday.
I think this year was the least exiting Pebble Beach ever. But it was sort of fun to see how car makers envisioned how they thought the world would look. Especially all the bubble windows.
This one was a Bobby Darin Coupe.
Ever seen Godard's "Alphaville"?
ReplyDeleteNow this is what I imagined instead of his "Ford Galaxie" ...
Oh, you know why we don't get cars like this, don't you?
BECAUSE SOMEONE PRESSED THE HISTORY ERASER BUTTON!
YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE PRESSED THE CANDY RED BUTTON BECKONING YOU TO PRESS IT!
THAT SHINY RED BUTTON YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE PRESSED!
*zzzzap* :-)
No, but I am super proficient in Ren and Stimpy.
ReplyDeleteI'll check that movie out. I guess you can rent it from Amazon.
