It was specially designed for use in the Topper movie , and for this it was equipped with a hidden steering mechanism so that it could be driven by a person that was not seen on the screen.

The car in the movie had the supercharger pipes and the front end is entirely different. <br /><br />This car even looks smaller than the one in the movie. If this is the modified version of that same car I think I like the previous version better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-406048398759339303.post-76799561062920834532010-03-24T10:12:59.076-07:002010-03-24T10:12:59.076-07:00Great website.
