Amanda,

We have a resident Imagineer ? Wow !!

In the original concept art, it was the Wonderful Wizard of Woz, at work in
Steve Jobs' garage. By the time the installation took place, the character
and surroundings changed to include several other notables such as Robert
Noyce, Bill Gates, Gordon Moore, Jack Tramiel, and several others. So,
technically, it is an amalgam (but 80% Woz in my opinion). Careful
inspection of all the props would yield a treasure trove of early
memorabilia, in the WDI tradition.

As far as I know, the car is not a specific set piece, just a prop from the
CA Studios boneyard. I'll see if I can find out more !
