Interesting factoids regarding this ....the original w-mobile was the failed line of "Edsel" cars produced by Ford. Edsel(Henry Ford's son that was rumored to have a small amount of brain damage) happened to be a huge fan of the comic strip "Lil' Abner"and wanted to take his second cousins once removed, to a Sadie Hawkins dance. Well, Henry couldn't let Edsel squire his second cousin in a broken down moon-runner, so this monstrosity was born.....It was at that moment that had America questioning whether Edsel was the only member of the family that was rumored to have a small amount of brain damage.  |

Another event to request this for would be NASCAR, it would make an awesome place car! Ooohhh, or how about "my wife ran away with my best friend and I sure do miss him?" |

I know, how about we make several models to use at a Jurrasic Park location. I can see the T-Rex salivating like Pavlov's dog. |

...while I couldn't find the same site to substantiate the info you gave regarding Edsel and his Sadie Hawkins date, you do seem to be correct about the Henry/Edsel connection. One site had this car supposedly being developed as a heavy contender to rival Cadillac's pre-eminence in the luxury car market. It could be custom ordered with from a huge option list of over forty condiments.  |

...yes, having this set of wheels as the pace car at a NASCAR event would be a coup! They could revive Dick Trickle out of death and have him do a final appearance driving. I'm not intentionally trying to poke fun at Bubba and Billy-Joe Jim-Bob but wouldn't this just be another big wiener driving around in circles? |

...it's not a good idea to tease carnivorous dinos with tasty nibbles and make it difficult to get to the tasty centers. Sort of like the Tootsie-pop of prehistory. |

...neat little bit of trivia about "Little Oscar". You would have thought that the flying monkeys would have gotten to him before he got his chance to make it to the big time. |

...could you imagine how proud you'd feel cruising down the highway, on your way to a big event to fill peoples gullets with unspecified piggy parts when you look down and see some kid pointing up at you and smiling as he says something to his daddy? Too bad you never learned how to lip-read. |

Well I must confess that I a few liberties here at the H.L. News channel. My motto is "If it outdoes the National Enquirer or Weekly World News" then you know it's all true....really! |

I had the good fortune as a young lad to see Little Oscar and the Wienermobile once. He had an assistant with him as he couldn't drive, due to the fact he couldn't see over the steering wheel. He did manage to procure a flying monkey and made a servant that could literally fly at his beck and call. |

...okay, here's a vision for you. You're sitting in your chair at the office as a car insurance adjuster. Some guy calls you up and tells you he was just driving down the street, obeying all the traffic laws and then he gets rear-ended by the Wienermobie. What's the first thing you do? Does the coffee you've been drinking come out your nose? |

...I like the fake news myself. As another fan of Samuel Clemens, why should facts get in the way of a good story? |

ROTFLOL!!! The first I would have to do is change my Depends. Then, after Trying not to continue bursting out in uncontrollable laughter I would have the daunting task of not only taking photos of both vehicles, but then I have to ask "What Happened?" With a straight face. |

I have seen this advertised. I would just love to have it drive into my neighborhood. I would exit the passenger seat and start passing out hot dogs to everybody; man, woman, children, K-9's...Not the dad gum squirrels, though. My generosity only goes so far.....Hekler  I was baptized, once. My brother told me that someone poured wine on my head, rather than holy water. (That would explain lots of things.) Write on......  |

...Kronk...wine is okay for baptisms. Think of it as the blood of Jeebus. I don't really know if I want to hear the particulars as to why there was a glass of wine overhead so I won't let curiosity itch at me today. You should be nice to the squirrels too. One day you might be driving the "Mr. Peanut" car. If Alfred Hitchcock was still alive, there'd be a movie in that. |

Hekler I actually remember things about the priest who baptized me. Way back when, in unincorporated areas...(sorta sounds like Star Wars, eh) Never mind that. I was born in a swamp, but was moved next to this huge catholic cemetery. You know, church yard, the priest's house, his caretaker's residence, rectory/meeting hall and white tombs all the way down to the river. Anyway, behind the caretaker's house, was a pond about fifty feet square, with a fountain in the middle and bunches of huge goldfish (which I tried several times to catch, to use for catfish bait, but was apprehended every time. I think it was the caretaker who was ratting me out and then "Fr X" would sic the grounds keeper on me. Yes, there was a grounds keeper, too. This was no small time frontier mission. No sir, the compound was Roman in every aspect.) Ugh! Sorry about that. Now, where was I? Oh, yes! The wine. Fast forward twelve years: Father X's reign is over and the new padre decides to drain the pond, clean it up and replace the goldfish with goggle eye perch. Yours truly happened to be present to gather up the remnants of the once dominant gold fish clan. (I still needed catfish bait) The incoming priest appeared shocked to find the pond bottom littered, along with about eighty seven gasping goldfish, no less than four hundred empty wine bottles, ranging from the diminutive 375 ml, all the way to the burly double magnum. When I questioned his predecessor's ethics, "Father Y" insisted that the empty bottles had been trucked in to provide a reef system for the gold fish. "And that's all I have to say about that." |

Hekler I still can't find it in me to share chili dogs with the squirrels. They ate the wiring harness on my lawnmower. Ugh! |

Kronk... ...ahhh yes, the old "reef system" defense. Who would have ever known that goldfish were preferential to reefs before that instinct was bred out of their species over thousands of years. Eating the wiring harness was only the beginning. Once the mower was incapacitated, they were going to siphon the gas and make molotov cocktails from the bottles in the artificial reef. |
