The Penismobile from 200 Motels

http://www.earpoke.com
This is a deleted scene from Frank Zappa's 200 Motels. It takes place on the streets of Centerville, while Howie is trying to get a groupie (played by Mark Volman) back to his cheesy motel room to the tune of 'Do You Like My New Car.' This scene contains the only footage of the first trial run of Cal Schenkel's PENIS MOBILE. For some odd reason this scene never made it into the final version of the film. This clip comes from the out of print documentary The True Story of 200 Motels.

If they WERE, Zappa would fire them.

I love these guys.. does anyone else think they're on acid??

@unknownkingdom It is the groupie routine. The story (which actually happened to Howard Kaylan) was first featured on Live at the Fillmore 1971.

I really wish this was in the movie. What a masterpiece.

Isn't that Martin Lickert helping Zappa push?

Wow, it's strange seeing Centerville without all the weird video effects.

"Do you like my new car" dialog is from the Mothers Live at the Fillmore 1971. The Bullet Hit is "So Happy Together".

Wow, it's an art car!! I just saw the new 35mm print of this film at The Loft Cinema in Tucson. Great film, great audience, like a reunion of amigos who never met before, cool! Flo & Eddy made a fun reggae album called Rock Steady With Flo and Eddy... Jammin',...

real fun! I love Flo & Eddy

This is very similar to the groupie routine in you can't do that on stage anymore. Similar phrases.
