    I can see GM's lawyers pulling their hair out trying to figure out how to get that great EV1 back so they can crush it. What a nice man Francis is, and a wonderful collection of cars.

      +louiewashere3 I would think that the car had the powertrain removed. There were some survivors, my college had one on display, however GM had removed the powertrain and internals first.

      Not now with the reintroduction (hopefully temporary) of electric cars. It probably used NiCad batteries. If the drivetrain was removed, you know how Jay is putting a Nissan Leaf motor in an Edwardian era Baker Electric, the EV1 could be "retromodded" the same way.

    An acquaintance of mine, Mr. Cofer, had a Tucker that was used in the Movie -- a mint green -- and he was Very Upset because the car got a paint-chip in the drivers door! It was a 'survivor' in Perfect Condition! Kept in a climate-controlled storage, and extremely well cared for... which is WHY the paint-chip 'mattered' so much.
    Mr. Cofer has passed away, but I am pretty sure his sons still have the car.

    wow Leno took the words rite out of my mouth! a phrase i too had been telling people, Its all about torque in drag racing not neccesarily Hp. Hp is to long distance runners as Torque is to sprinters. Torque is the pushing force that propels you. horsepower dictates the top speed possible. normally torque is the offshoot of massive hp with a combustion engine, the more hp the more tq or the stronge the combustion the more hp and tq, hence the use of nitros, that said the reason why torque is so important is because its pushing power. power push the weight and thru air resistance.

      HP is how fast you can apply the torque. I can make as much torque as a car, but I have less than 1 HP so I can't make that torque nearly as quickly

      Well the P90D has 548HP about 200 more HP than a Camaro and a Camaro is faster. by about 10MPH

    Interesting side note to the Tatra, during WW2 the German officers loved to get hold of them because they were fast.....And often killed themselves because they didn't know that stamping on the brakes in a corner was reeeaaallly dumb. The Wehrmacht ended up forbidding German personnel from using them.

      The idea was that you should understand that a Tesla isn't your normal slow eco car with just a focus on non pollution. I guess it was wasted.

    Jay,
    I enjoyed "Cars of The Future."
    My Dad was a WW2 Vet. He went to "The University of Southern Illinois, Carbondale"
    ...on "The GI Bill."
    After Dad was done with school, He got a job in L.A.
    He was an "Architectural Engineer" w/an L.A. Co. called
    Daniel, Mann, Johnson &
    Mendenhall."
    I "Gave my Mother Her Kicks
    on RT66."
    Decades later- I met the MET
    the guy who WROTE that song.
    Still miss the segments on
    M/Cs.
