    One of the coolest cars from one of the most beautiful decades of design.

    What a sexy piece of streamlined art deco machinery! But it definitely has blind spots on top of blind spots.

    You know what the real problem with the Phantom Corsair is? No one not named Bruce Wayne would have the guts to drive it. I mean, even the name of the thing screams "masked avenger of the night!" And just looking at it you wonder where the hidden Gatling gun goes, or the remote-control drone, or the hidden stash for the driver's ominous batlike mantle, and those so-called "bumpers" look an awful lot like Star Trek deflector shields ...

      115 mph? Easy for me, having a engine built in same factory as the duesenberg's.

      Fuel is expensive today, in these times they have a lot of focus in make the automobile beautiful as they can, but after the great oil crisis in 70s the worldwide car industry would never be the same.

      ChannelNotFound I've been wanting to 3D model one, carve it out of foam on a CNC router, and fiberglass it as a plug. Then pull bodies off it. Not sure if there would be much of a market. But I'd LOVE one.

    IN 1920-30-S PEOPLE WERE MORE FUNNY, HAPPY, OPTIMISTIC, GOOD MIXERS, CAPABLE AND WISE THAN NOW! IF YOU THINK THAT I'M NOT RIGHT, PLEASE, WATCH THE DOCUMENTARY MOVIES WHICH WERE FILMED THAT TIME! LOOK AT PEOPLE'S FACE ( HOW THEY WERE HAPPY) AND LOOK AT THE DESIGNES AND SHAPES OF THE CARS! THAT TIME THERE WEREN'T MOBILE PHONES AND THE INTERNET! SO PEOPLE READ, TRAVEL, LEARNT MUCH AND COULD MAKE DIFFERENT, BEAUTIFUL AND INTERESTING THINGS FOR THE MOST COMFORTABLE LIFE IN THE WORLD! I'M PROUD OF THAT PEOPLE! I RESPECT THEM! ❤👍😐
