Remember all the flying cars portrayed in the 1950s movies about the 2000s? Sure, there are a few such contraptions you can buy these days, but it's a long way to the airborne traffic showcased in the said retro productions. Nevertheless, we can always turn to digital artists for such stunts, with the Ford Mustang we have here being an example as good as any.
Gifting the original pony car with hardware that allows it to travel by air sounds like a brilliant idea to start with. However, when it comes to the eye candy we have here, the implementation is the one that deserves a round of applause – despite the massive gap between the car and its newfound bits, the integration appears to be flawless and then some.

With the Cyberpunk 2077 video game coming later this year, this sort of universe will expand its fan base, so we can also talk about a trending development.

The eye candy that now occupies our screens comes from David Dura, a motion graphics designer based in The Netherlands. And, as the pixel master explains in the first Instagram post below, this fly-high 'Stang was inspired by the work of Paul Birman.

We're talking about a freelance graphic designer who constantly engages in such visual stunts. Of course, no description of his goodies can replace the actual pixels, which is why you should also check out the second Instagram post below.

That's where you'll find an airborne incarnation of the Ectomobile. And you have to admit that the Ghostbusters could've used this sort of tech for their 1959 959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor Futura Duplex. And, judging by the toys they use, perhaps this wouldn't be that much of a stretch. Oh, and the "traffic", which brings us back to the movies mentioned in the intro, seems to be on the house.
