B.B Korn "Indy" Tether Car
The B.B. Korn “Indy” Tether Car is a large rolling display model built from cast aluminum, sheet metal, brass, rubber, and leather. At 20.75 inches long, it has the presence and detail of a serious mechanical collectible rather than a desk-size toy.
Large rubber tires support a body fitted with a machine-turned dashboard and gauges. Leather upholstery finishes the cockpit. Lift the hood to find a dummy two-cylinder aircraft engine, while a second dummy pressure pump sits along the side.
The wheels roll, but this is explicitly a display model rather than a powered tether car. Its value is in the scale, mixed materials, visible cockpit work, and the wonderfully overbuilt machinery represented under the hood.
