For 15 years or so, the Art Arfons Green Monster jet car has sat in the Petersen Automotive Museum, sporting a red, white, and blue color scheme and accompanied by a meager description. It still has the look of a land-speed warrior with its giant fin and protruding proboscis, but it also appears past its time with decades of wear and tear visible inside and out. Officials at the Petersen would like to see that change, preferably by giving the car away.
