Good morning and Welcome to AUTOMOTIVE POP CULTURE DAILY! We hope you're sleepin' in, but if you're like us and hit the morning a runnin,' then you get first dibs on these amazing Fireball MASTERPRINTS! Today, it's HERBIE, THE INCREDICAR from THE INCREDIBLES, THE CHAVIK HOT ROD and Ken Block's HOONIGAN MUSTANG!! Also available ON MUGS to add to your AutoPop Collection!
DID YOU KNOW?? The interior of Herbie was painted a non-reflective gray so that studio lights and cameras wouldn't reflect off of it. And the standard 40 horsepower engine in the VW 1200cc was not powerful enough for Herbie to look believable in racing scenes... so they sped up the film! Silly Disney folks... And Director Angela Robinson left hidden crew equipment and cheap camera tricks in the film to entertain fans! Go back and WATCH!
Also in today's BEEP BEEP BLAST... Fireball meets up with Legend RICHARD PETTY at SEMA, scoots a PORSCHE 911 Turbo through Malibu (Pre-Fire), runs across a CAR FIRE in Ventura (Watch the VIDEO here!) spots the STARSKY TORINO in the Wild, snaps a Classic Barris CHUCK WAGON built for Bob Hope in the Pete Vault, reveals the SPACE SHUTTLE in all it's glory (He was there when it was delivered like a baby!) and the super cool SPECTRUM PURSUIT VEHICLE from Gerry Anderson's 1967-68 CAPTAIN SCARLET and the Mysterons! Have you started your MUG COLLECTION yet??
