As he has often quipped, "If it moves on wheels at Disneyland, I probably designed it." He developed more than 100 designs for Disneyland from Autopia to the Matterhorn Bobsleds. Bob's authored books, raced cars, flown airplanes, and had a hand in a multitude of automotive designs including cars, trains, trams, monorail trains, the list goes on and on and on. In 1999, Bob was honored with the Themed Entertainment Association's Lifetime Achievement Award (THEA). The Walt Disney Company honored him in 2004 as a Disney Legend, again honored in 2008 with a Disneyland Window on Main Street.
