Was it used in a movie?

I do not have detailed information about this. I guess it was more an art project. I know the creator and the name of thisvehicle.

Tom Sewell's "Picklemobile"

QuoteSewell attracted attention immediately; driving into the neighborhood behind the wheel of a car he had dubbed the Picklemobile. The 1949 Studebaker's exterior had been coated with thick, bumpy, uneven layers of sprayed on polyurethane foam and then given a $29.95 Earl Scheib sea green paint job, transforming Raymond Loewy's classic bullet nose design into something that at least faintly resembled a long pickle on wheels.
