Here in town some jack wagon got a Mercedes SL completely chromed. Every body panel. It is annoying as fuck to drive by on a sunny day.

Also years ago I used to see this guy in the DFW driving around in a car that he had modified to look like it was a jet. I know I have a photo somewhere, I'll try to dig it up.

I've seen them with a Union Jack and a Scottish flag but never any other country.

And also this thanks to the Goooglies. :laugh:

When I was in grade 1 or 2 ('61 or '62), my uncle was the Vice Principal of my elementary school.

He drove an NSU Prinz. I remember the name, not so much the heritage.

The grade 7 boys lifted it up and put in on the cement bike stand. Grade 7 boys.

I remember reading an article about the guy or guys that created these street legal bumper car buggies out in California. With medium sized motorcycle engines they were capable of hitting 100mph if I remember correctly.

I have a few more of the photos saved to a folder of car pics.

I would think it would pull wheelies if it ever got traction and flip end over end.
