Conceptualized by the King of the Kustom Cars, George Barris, maker of The Batmobile and The Munstermobile, and Dick Dean, the vehicle resembles a Vox Phantom guitar in silhouette. It has a Vox Super Continental organ mounted in the rear. It cost $30,000 to build in 1968 and is well-stocked with vintage Vox Beatle equipment.

The hidden speakers and special chrome steps allow for three guitarists and an organist to play from the car– and it’s equipped with a Muntz 8-track player.

The Voxmobile is powered by an original 289 Cobra engine (used in early AC Cobras) and is reportedly able to reach 175MPH.

Asking price, $175,000

The Voxmobile appeared in the psychsploitation classic Psych-Out.  The film features an early Jack Nicholson performance.
