So Does an Automobile is a 1939 Fleischer Studios animated short film starring Margie Hines as Betty Boop.

Synopsis

Betty operates an auto repair garage for sick and injured automobiles. Betty sings as she restores broken-down taxicabs, high-price limousines and restores a police car with sore and flat feet (tires) back to perfect condition again.

Notes
