ZZR
Spy Rod from the Movie "Out of Sight"

Original year: 1966
Company: AMT
Scale: 1/25
Designer: George Barris
This spy-spoof teenage agent rod was one of the wildest creations of George Barris's, for producer Mr. Dave Hammond of Universal Studios. For the 800 horsepower there are two 440 cubic inch Buick engines mounted in tandem with an Ansen shift-locked transmission. M/T tires are mounted on far 12" racing Trans-American wheels for more traction on the beaches. Hilborn injectors add more horsepower to the engines. A Cal-Automotive kick channeled is mounted on rectangular frames with deal radiators. There is a complete arsenal in the back with guns, rifles, tear gas, hand grenades, plus flame throwers from rear fenders and bullets out of the front fenders. Body grabbing seat and chin-knocking rockers.

Yep that is what George said but George is often wrong and after contacting Micky Thompson they indicate that they made no such tire.
I have seen this tire before but just cant place it. Yes its vintage but thought I would give it a try on here for some of the racers or vintage street machiners.
