so heres what ive found. heres his description "Mohishwa 1976 flying car. One of the first consumer level flying cars, only released in Japan. NOT OPERATIONAL! Needs work and parts, wing apparatus missing. Novelty rebuild project for the right mechanic. Being upfront, Mohishwa parts are really hard to find... " i cant find anything else about this car or that company but it look right out of a movie!

also heres a screen shot of the listing 1679282585715.png and a link to it. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/552947110013844/. what are yall thoughts? have you heard of it before?

Actually the first production flying car for public consumption was the Aerocar in 1948. It was based on a Crosley sedan. Only 10 were built before the company went belly up. I believe all 10 still exist and one is still flying in private hands.

Geez why? Looks fake anyhow... I thought it was a joke when I first saw it... how would that fly?

Well, the ad said the "wing apparatus" was missing and it wouldn't fit within the confines of the fake photo anyway. I don't know why they did it the way they did it and made it look derelict.

At the same time, is this concept legit : https://www.aeromobil.com/#introduction ?

I think at this point we are looking for a self contained, all parts present at all times, wings that deploy and then fold when not needed flying car, and we haven't gotten there yet. And it has to drive and fly equally well and with the same kind of efficiency. . . interesting attempts through the years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flying_car
