If this futuristic sports car looks as if it came straight out of a science fiction TV show, it did. It was built for British actor Jon Pertwee who plays Dr. Who, a time-traveling scientist in a popular BBC TV adventure series. Pertwee uses the car both on screen and off, driving it jauntily around the streets of London. Fully operational, the far-out finned vehicle is powered by an Imp engine can do 100 mph and has a built-in TV set—so Pertwee can watch himself on TV.
