This is so obvious it is untrue.......
Mr Big, in an attempt of world dominance has invented a machine (lower picture) that will transmit different photoshopped pictures of Blue Ford Transit vans (upper picture) to anyone who logs onto the site. If you look closely I think James Bond can be seen in the lower corner of the upper picture.
If the above is not correct, then I have no idea.

It looks like a Chevrolet G-10 from the mid 60's
What makes it special? could it be a prototype electric powered version?

By the power of google The 1966 GM Electrovan is credited with being the first hydrogen fuel cell car ever produced. Though fuel cells have been around since the early 1800's, General Motors was the first to use a fuel cell to power the wheels of a vehicle I like this bit!!! From the outset, the idea was to use a Corvair as the first hydrogen fuel cell vehicle and call it Electrovair. But, GM soon discovered that a leak with the electrolyte used caused "brilliant fireworks", plus it weighed 550 lbs. and needed to be housed in a larger vehicle. There was also the incident of the exploding hydrogen tank, which injured no one but sent pieces flying a quarter of a mile, which was of great concern and extra safety precautions needed to be taken to insure that no one working on the project was injured. |
