One of the original cars appeared in a humorous Public information film (PIF) by the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency aimed at British motorists, reminding them to pay their Vehicle excise duty. Ironically, there was criticism as all cars built before 1 January 1973, including the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang model, are exempt from vehicle excise duty in the UK. The PIF was a parody of the MGM film. [4] [5] Chitty Prime (GEN 11) [ edit ] Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (reg GEN 11) at Classic & Sports Cars By the Lake (Sep 2010) Chased by Caractacus, Truly and his children aboard the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang car, they fly all the way to Vulgaria and learn of the tyranny which is plaguing the kingdom. For the 1968 film, at least eight cars were created, with two built as the Paragon Panther prior to its crash: United Artists promoted the film with an expensive, extensive advertising campaign, hoping to reproduce the success of The Sound of Music (1965), and it was initially released on a roadshow basis. [4] Reception [ edit ] Original release [ edit ] GEN22 MGM Authorized Replica Chitty (Note: Good info on fake Chitty Replicas in England), Chitty Chitty Bang Bang GEN22, archived from the original on 27 March 2013 , retrieved 5 April 2013Chitty Chitty Bang Bang cars - Originals and Replicas, MarinPics USA, archived from the original on 2 May 2013 , retrieved 29 March 2013 This car may have been the first car made for the production of the film and if it was the car would have most likely used for additional scenes during early production. The car was used heavily for preproduction publicity shots. As we move down the car we see the long nose/hood area is chromed and has good detailing. The hood casting has faux louvers in it and vents that would probably be for heat or exhaust. The wheels are brass era style 10-spokes that are surrounded by a thin plastic tire. Almost no stone is left unturned in his pursuit of the revolutionary car. He sends two spies to retrieve the car and they mistakenly abduct the grandfather of Potts. Kilgannon, Corey (18 March 2016).

I love how they retract into the body and stay hidden, and that they have similar vein detail as the 1/1 scale car. The designers really took the extra steps to make this model special and it shows…..but details aren’t done yet. Husky also included front and rear fins to complete the flying mode look.
