When I was 12 I had my first inventive spark. I went to the Farmer Jack’s grocery store with my grandmother to do some shopping when I saw a promotion for a contest. WIN A CORVETTE!!! The flyer had a line art image of a Corvette with the top down. It wasn’t the Corvette itself that intrigued me, but something else I saw. I immediately grabbed the flyer and took it home.
If you are a child of the 80′s like I am then you know all about the Jetson’s and their flying cars. Seeing by 1990 “They” still didn’t have flying cars yet, I was more than obliged to offer my assistance. I traced the outline of the corvette when I got home and drew instead of wheels, what I thought a flying car should look like.
