Wayne’s World Mirth Mobile sold at auction

It will be mine. Oh yes… it will be mine.

The original Mirth mobile from classic American comedy ‘Wayne’s World’ has appeared at auction… and it’s sold for a pretty hefty sum.

Appearing in the totally excellent 1992 movie, the AMC Pacer isn’t exactly a cool car. But after Wayne and Garth rocked out to Bohemian Rhapsody while waiting at a stop light, the Mirth Mobile might just be one of the most iconic cars on film.

The blue 1976 AMC Pacer was on offer at Barrett-Jackson in Sin City with no reserve… and eventually sold for a staggering $37,400.00.

Do you accept… cash? Cha-ching! Cha-ching!

The listing describes lot 608 as “the original 1976 AMC Pacer used in the iconic film Wayne’s World.”

And it even comes complete with the iconic red rope liquorice dispenser.

“Modifications made for the film included baby blue paint over the original yellow exterior and brown interior, tow hooks welded to the front subframe, a hole was drilled in the roof for the famous liquorice dispenser, flame decals were added, and components were removed from the inner dash to accommodate the cup dispenser and a door mechanism above the sealed-off glove box.”

“The studio also went with a purposely mismatched wheel combination of chrome spoked wheels in the rear and factory hubcaps in the front. Every effort was made in the car’s extensive restoration to bring it back to its movie condition.”

But if you were thinking of putting in a bid, it seems you’re a bit too late.

Denied!

The Mirth Mobile provided the backdrop for one of the most famous moments in movie history, when Wayne and Garth rock out to Bohemian Rhapsody with their pals. But it’s also seen extensively throughout the movie.

“The only part of the restoration not true to the movie are the upgraded speakers and stereo (the 10" restoration speakers are not functional as there never was an amp in the car),” reads the listing. “All the props inside the car are original.”

What a totally amazing, excellent discovery…
