It'll fly off a catapult on an aircraft carrier, but according to my
father, so will an old Chevy...

There are photographs of vehicles being catapulted from carriers. A
google search should find a few.

If you lack a decent rudder on a 1964 Biscayne, I understand you can use the
doors in slow flight for some yaw control.

"64 Biscayne. Are you declaring an emergency at this time?"
"Yes."
"But you haven't [been] launched yet."
"Well thank goodness because we're having problems with our wipers."

Chevrolet Biscayne ...in the hangar

Guessing ...old Ford Falcon? Something European?
I zoomed in on the JPEG but couldn't figure it out. Saturday night - bored.

Paul,

I zoomed in and zoomed out several time, I swear I don't see a Biscayne
in the picture on the website. All I can is the beautiful woman in the
white come-n-get-me : -)

You sure it isn't one 'o them trick pictures? I stared and I
stared... No car. It was hypnotizing. : -)

Considering the one my father told about was done during WWII, it was
probably a 1930's Chevy but I'm sure the rest would apply... Maybe we
could get zoom to try it in an AMC Pacer...

Off the end of a flight deck ...well, they were called an aquarium on
wheels.
