Flintmobile built by father and son goes under the hammer

A replica of a classic cartoon car has sold for more than a thousand pounds at an auction in Norfolk.

The Flintmobile was made by a father for his son's prom before going under the hammer last week.

A spokesman for Anglia Car Auctions said: "It runs but will require foot-propulsion for any serious performance.

It became Fred's signature mode of transportation for his commute to Slate Rock and Gravel Company.

The cartoon car sold for £1,400 at Anglia Car Auctions in King's Lynn with all proceeds going to Samuel's Charity which supports children with serious or terminal diseases.
