Custom Carmaker Plans to Build World’s Longest Limousine
A man who has designed and built some of the most iconic automobiles over the last 25 years is making plans to build the world’s longest limo. Jay “Hollywood Jay” Ohrberg has designed and built the Batmobile, the “Back to the Future” DeLorean, the “Dukes of Hazzard” Dodge Charger General Lee, the Ford Explorer torn open like a tin can by a Tyrannosaurus Rex in “Jurassic Park” and many other famous rides. Since the late 60s, Ohrberg has been the go-to guy for movie and television producers and directors who need custom vehicles.
Vintage Presidential Limousine Makes Rare Public Appearance
A 1919 Pierce-Arrow limousine that once belonged to President Woodrow Wilson made a rare appearance at a Kansas City vintage auto show recently. The beautifully restored vintage limo was the highlight of the Art of the Car Concours at the Kansas City Art Institute. The classic limo is drivable, but it normally sits inside the Wilson Presidential Library in Staunton, VA. This vintage Pierce-Arrow features a six-cylinder engine and was the ultimate in automobile luxury in the past. Brand new, the Pierce-Arrow limousine cost $9,600, a princely sum in 1919.
