Short video of Lady Penelope in her Rolls Royce FAB 1 from the British 1960's tv show Thunderbirds. The show featured puppets and was remade as a movie recently.

Gerry Anderson created all the vehicles for this and other shows of the era. He is credited with coining the phrase 'Supercar' tho' for a tv show of the same name.
