Oldest Flying Car up for Auction

By John Farrier in Auto & Transportation, Everything Else on Mar 10, 2010 at 2:33 pm

In 1934, electrician and hobbyist Frank Skroback built the first airplane that could be driven on a road. Or the first car that could be flown. It has six wings and an overall width of seven feet, so it can fit inside a lane. The plane will be auctioned at Red Baron’s Antiques in Atlanta on March 13.

    This is perfect for when the zombies attack! You can land and take off from almost anywhere if the plane is that thin.

    Looks like it could float too.

    Only way that thing could fly is if it was driven off a tall cliff – then it would be a quick straight down flight to it’s permanent parking space.
