The thing with cartoon cars is that they don't have to be based on real cars but it looks like a 1955–1956 ford from the sides with tailfins from a 1959 Cadillac. |

I was thinking this might be some mid-1950's Ford concept car, until I saw the taillights in the first thumbnail. |

It looks a lot like the 1955 Ford Mystere show car. |

I agree, completely http://www.carstyling.ru/en/cars.1955_Ford_Mystere.html |

Wow, I'm impressed. When I saw this movie years ago, I assumed Al's car was just an amalgam of various jet-age styling features, but looking at pictures of the Mystere it's clear there is a direct inspiration. Good job, Pixar! |

Hot wheels once made a toy from this car based from the movie. I used to have one. |

This paint scheme reminds me of Flo from Cars. |

That's the thing with cartoons. The producers make cars better (sometimes grosser) than in real life |
