Lake Mirror is one of my favorite places in FL. What a great setting for the car show.

Damn this was in Lakeland Florida about 30 minutes from me and I didn’t know it. Wish I would have seen this thing in person.

It reminds me of the Snowpiercer train cars

I watched a Restoration of one of these on "Bitch'n Rides". These things are great and those were the wonderful years. I want to know where is my Flying Car?

Which one was your car?

There is a lot of footage coming from this show over the next few days.

I live in Utah and was fortunate to have toured Dave Kindig’s shop while his team was restoring the one there. They did such a great job.

I actually did stumble across a Future Liner once and even collected a photo of it sometime later. About 20 years ago I wandered into an impound lot outside of Phoenix Arizona. There I found a derelict looking Future Liner. It had been rear ended pretty hard probably by another Future Liner as it was crumbled from top to bottom. I also found another post crash photo. But wait, there's more. Local to me there is a guy who salvaged the cab section of a Future Liner and mounted it on a forward control flat bed tow truck. Send me a link to post the photos I have.

Imagine if GM didn't pull the plug on the Parade of Progress. What would they be showing today?

His information is a bit incorrect. The original engines were small four cylinders, changed to six cylinders when repurposed after the war. As for other information: The only way the small motors were able to move these beasts was with extensive muli-layered gearing via an odd transmission of sorts. Both the front and rear axles were "dualies"; yes, two wheels per side on the front and back totaling eight wheels. The entire frame, flooring, and basic paneling of the body is wood, no metal except for exterior sheets for the finish. Top speed was thirty mph (but certainly not up a hill!).

What was the point of this vehicle and this isn’t an antagonistic question I’m genuinely curious was it supposed to be a bus or was it supposed to be for cargo use one would’ve thought that it was supposed to be for RV but I see that back area and it just looks like it’s for cargo or something

Wow built in 1939 and still looks cool and rugged. What happened GM? Wish GM was like it was back in its hay day.

I wish we got to see more inside the display area, it seems like there was so much more space we couldn’t see. He said they slept underneath it on the ground, that seems so strange when surely there was enough room for comfortable sleeping arrangements inside this beast of a vehicle. How very unfuturistic to forget to create the display area to be convertible to make sleeping space GM lol.

Came to see the Futurliner, left when all I saw were talking heads. Nothing to see here but a selfie-fest. Here's a thought. Next time how about showing the vehicle?

@MsUndergroundsound Ай бұрын

Here’s a thought, watch the video, they gave a full tour and explained the history. Your ignorance is showing

@RARenfield Ай бұрын

@@MsUndergroundsound Regarding my ignorance: How kind of you to say. There's no need to suffer this talking head garbage. I found another vastly better video about the Futurliner. Very informative. And ZERO talking heads. Ignore that.
