This is the Molt Taylor Air Car.  I believe it is the only convertible automobile/airplane ever certificated by the FAA.  

A number of years back I was having breakfast at Field's Family Restaurant at the corner of Knapp and 9th Street in Oshkosh.  The place was very busy and I told the hostess that if someone wanted to share my table they would be welcome.  A short time later she seated two older gentlemen with me and one of the turned out to Mr. Taylor himself.  We had a marvelous conversation and went our separate ways.  A few years after that Mr. Taylor passed away.  That breakfast was a real treat for me I can tell you!
