PIC: Something different #39 (12/18/2024)

Oh my goodness John - you outdid yourself! Pretty cool vehicle actually; even though it looks like a dirigible (blimp) car!

I have a 1/43 scale model of this car. Funny this should come up today. Last week a friend brought a friend of his over to see my collection. The friend challenged me as to whether I had ever heard of this car and when I said yes and showed him the model, he was blown away. Buckminster Fuller was known for building Geodesic domed buildings amongst other things.

what a remarkable man. incredible foresight. As always great post John. Like how historic pics featured prominently in the video. Immediately went hunting for Bobs 1/43. I found a Bizarre. Although not for sale.

I'll spend sometime trying to track one down. 

Gotta love how it changed direction with the single steerable back wheel.

Yep, like a rudder on a plane or boat!
