johnfromstaffs ◊ 2008-01-18 19:58	Wrenchhead is correct about it not being a Stout Scarab. My guess is that it looks so impractical and outlandish it was probably a one off for the film. Where is the driving position?
Ray B. ◊ 2008-07-31 11:39	Identified! I submitted this one to Autopuzzles.com, and Otto Puzzell himself identified this oddity: it's a one-off built by a Angelo R. Noble. http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=4313.0 Here is the link he found to a short film where you can see it in action: Link to "www.auto-history.tv"
