Professor Z
At the Municipal Engineering Museum, we saw numerous cars. There were several prototypes in the motor culture section at the museum. They only way I am to describe these cars are; Imagine you are watching Pixar's Cars 2. Can you hear the car with the Russian accent and one eye glass? His name was professor Z. This is what one of the cars looks like. It opens from the front and people will crawl into the car. It was probably hectic. The second car was similar to the car in the movie Man from U.N.C.L.E. You can see the car in the car vs man chase in the first 20 minutes of the movie. If you haven't seen this movie, I highly recommend watching it! My favorite car was called the chicken catcher. The door opens the opposite way it does today. You would open the car door and catch random chickens in the street. I wish we did this in the United States.

While the front-opening car was an obvious safety hazard, prototypes like the chicken catcher probably led to the features of what we now see on expensive cars where the doors open upward rather than outward. It was nice to see some of the contributions to this trend that were made in Poland.
