ROBOCOP, Emergency, Peeps, Pinup, The General & The Windsong

Welcome to AUTOMOTIVE POP CULTURE DAILY! How’r you guys holdin’ up with the FIRES?? Leave a Comment! Today, we HIT IT HARD with a ROBOCOP Behind the Scenes and Fireball’s ROBODUKE MASTERPRINT! Not only did Director Paul Verhoven shoot the film, but he had his own RoboArm!

DID YOU KNOW?? The original plan was for RoboCop to drive a futuristic police car called the Robo-Mobile or the Turbo-Car, but it was deemed too ridiculous. Yea, we’d have to agree with that one. But Ford was not involved in the production of the first RoboCop movie and was upset that its Ford Taurus’ were used in such a violent film. But now… I think they’re ok with it. Silly Ford doods…

Also in today’s ROBOBLAST… The Cast of EMERGENCY along with Fireball’s #1 BEST SELLER… the SQUAD 51!! Fireball Peeps at shows include Master Photographer PEP WILLIAMS, a Fireball Commission for Frenchman PIERRE BOGROS, Pinstriper JOHNNY MARTINEZ and Superfan GOOD DOG CARL!! Plus, Fireball is hitting the DIECAST SUPERCON in Vegas with Daisy and THE DUKE BOYS! You comin??’

Today’s PINUP ART is called “CARMEN DREAMS,” Fireball’s Whipsnap Sketch of the 1961 FERRARI 250GT Competition Coupe and an early FORD Concept called “WINDSONG.”

Today’s BEST OF SHOW?? Robert Knight’s CUSTOM FORD PICKUP! WATCH! Plus, don’t miss Fireball at COUNTY LINE CARS & COFFEE!!
