In the original unaired pilot version he has a different car: /vehicle_522431.html The 4th thumbnail shows the hood ornament, unfortunately it's quite blurry. This is not actually a whole car. In the information subtitles on the DVD it says "The design team made it clear that they just wanted the front half of a 1947 10 horsepower car, mounted on castors." -- Last edit: 2012-08-14 00:42:20
