Dunno the blimp reference.

But a few clues then.

Fixed undercarriage.
Only one built.
Brief career - first flew - and crashed - in 1957.
Powered by Jacobs 7-cyl air cooled radials - maximum speed was 140mph.

Pypard,

We’ve had several duplicates recently, including the Evangel, but that doesn’t reduce the fun.

Not sure about the car on the left. Tatra?

I think it's this machine. Only 18 built. Plenty of coat space and a nicely decorated green toilet/bathroom.

Automobile to the left of the 1964 VW Beetle is a 1948 Mercury Town Sedan Deluxe 4-door, complete with suicide doors. Powered by a Ford flat-head V-8 engine. The roof-top baggage rack may indicate use as a crew shuttle vehicle.
