“Lincoln executives were concerned about the heavy and wide doors on the Mark VIII in the early 1990’s especially in large cities with tight parking spots. They were toying with the idea of a Mark VIII that had doors that disappeared beneath the car which would require no additional space for the doors to swing open in order to allow the occupant to exit or enter. Back in the day, the major auto makers would sub-contract their concept designs to other engineering firms who specialiazed in auto concepts and executions. In this particular case, this Lincoln Mark VIII was shipped over to Joalto Design Inc. near Detroit…who created this amazing, one of a kind concept car and shipped it back to Lincoln for executive approval…Unfortunately, the Ford Motor Company executives did not like the design and ordered the car (and the concept) to be sent to the junkyard and destroyed. The current owner had been tracking this car for nearly 20 years and finally convinced the previous owner to part with it.”

Growing up, arcades were all the rage. I remember going after school just to watch local Street Fighter 2 masters fight it out at the arcade. Arcades are long gone with popularity of the home video games, like the PS2 and Xbox. If you always wanted a arcade at home, just make one. With the creation of Mame software. Many home video cabinets are popping up all over the web. The Webb Mame machine website is one of the most indepth sites about creating a Mame machine. Webb Mame site has indepth articles and full drawings of the cabinet.
