      Cool! This car was on the cover of Jimmy Bryant's classic country album "The Fastest Guitar in the Country".

      "The Voxmobile was designed and built by George Barris, and stands as one of his more bizarre contrivances. Along with such tastefully created objets d'art as the Bed Buggy, Munster Rod and Batmobile, Barris seemed to be the source of every custom car on film, TV and album cover at the time. This car, designed as a rolling promotional piece for the VOX products, and including working amps, keyboards and guitar racks, was supposed to co-star with Jack Nicholson in the Richard Rush-helmed acid trip film Psych-Out, but its dramatic debut was left on the cutting room floor, and Nicholson would never return its calls despite saying that he felt they really connected while on the set."
