Celebrated guitar man Jimmy Bryant poses with the Voxmobile, George Barris' finest creation. Completed in 1968 at a cost of $30,000 it is both an operational motor vehicle and a fully functional mobile amplifier. It has inputs for 32 guitars.
After Vox got through with the car, it was owned by Jimmy Bryant until 1980. More historical details in the clip below, but I must warn you about the annoying goofballs hosting the clip.
And while we're on the subject of Jimmy Bryant, here is a picture taken in his hometown of Moultrie, Georgia.
