Bill Peet's car designs
Pixar's car designsI duno. I guess there's only so many ways to design cars, but I feel like Bill Peet must have had a pretty strong influence...wouldn't be surprised if they had pulled some of his drawings from that handy Disney archive. Visit Bill Peet's site for more pictures from "Susie."

I completely agree with you. I saw the preview for "cars" last night, and the first thing that popped into my head was "Those look like the old Disney cars!"
I recently went to the MoMA and saw the Pixar exhibit there (really cool) and I remember thinking I've seen this style car somewhere before. Actually I thought it a long time ago (my company licenses Disney and I saw some of the "Cars" stuff in development). Anyway, your example just might be it. I remember there was a short about a car (was it a taxi?) that was about to be a 'Dad' and then there was a baby car - is this it?? Did Bill Peet do that?! I LOVE BILL PEET! I grew up with his picture books, they were always among my favorites!
I quite liked Disney's short of Susie back when I was a kind. But I didn't remember how it looked like until now. They look really similar. :O
