In the 1997 special edition they redid these effects with computers. Some more close up views from an exhibition where you can see the 3 wheels underneath: I don't think the model name is given in the film but this extensive Star Wars site calls it the X-34: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/X-34_landspeeder Other sites may call it the XP-34, probably because of this line of dialogue: Luke Skywalker: Ever since the XP-38 came out, they just aren't in demand. -- Last edit: 2012-02-07 19:10:48
