    Like all children of the Back To The Future generation, we can vividly remember the moment Marty spies his nemesis Griff Tannen in his hover BMW during the second installment of the futuristic trilogy — though we were never huge enough fans to track down the original movie car, buy it and attempt a complete restoration. Jeff Chabotte on the other hand, did just that. The fan of all things McFly bought the BMW 633-based "hover craft" from a fellow BTTF fanboy. Chabotte then restored the car to

                  Sorry but what a waste of money. I do like the films but come on. I really doubt any BMW dealership would want that thing sitting in front of it in exchange for free work/parts.

                  Well, posterity, you will never know what it cost us to preserve your freedom. I only hope that you will make a good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it.

                                      It wasn't.

                                      There was a one-off 6er cab made by Bmw though, and it sits in the bmw mobile tradition museum in munich. Its f'n gorgeous. They should have made that car.

                                                  That is pretty cool I have to admit.. Looks like he had to deal with some rust under the wood/ fiberglass peice.

                                                  If you look in the background, you can see he has a Delorean too!
