Hahah, beautiful picture! That's a great car, I would love to own it. Shatner probably appreciated the irony of his publicity shot, in his 23rd century uniform, with a 20th century car.
Love the two comments...
Wonder if it was chilly the day of the shot, you see how his arms are crossed. Either that, or it's late in the season and he's hiding the tummy bulge.
Regardless, I would so love to be driving that car out on the freeway this weekend (if it doesn't rain, that is).
My hubby showed me a car that's only slightly cooler than this one, and it was featured on the Pink Panther cartoon show from his childhood...some kind of ultrasleek limo with electric doors. It could be a 'cousin' design-wise to the The Captain's Cruiser above. :) ~Marlene~
the jupiter 8!
ReplyDeleteI always loved this pic, ever since Kim posted it on The Shat House over at FanCentral.
ReplyDeleteYa see folks? THIS is what a REAL Starship Captain does on his off-time!

That's what I want to look like if I grow up
ReplyDeleteCaptain Kirk probably has three Orion slave girls riding around with him in that thing.
ReplyDeleteThe Jupiter 8 car was also used extensively in one episode of the '60s tv series BEWITCHED.

Other men sweat to cool down, but William Shatner exudes cool.
ReplyDeleteAll eyes set for STUNNED!

Besides Bewitched, the car was modified to be (I think) Cat Woman's car in Batman
