      They are GM "Firebird" concept cars from 1953, 1956 and 1959. The frist one was jet engine powered. The center and last ones are gas turbine driven.

            Sort of like "Get Smart"'s cone of silence-

            Isn't that almost like the Batmobile, with the twin bubbles? Na-na-na-na-na-na, Batman!

              Like the third ones style the best. This happened quite a few years before the actual Firebird appeared. They are futuristic looking even 50 years later.

                The last one actually says "Firebird" in the grille.

                I wonder how bad "Pimp My Ride" could screw those up...
