this must be a fine piece of ‘contemporary art’. it even is signed above the wheel. could be worth a lot of money.
still wondering: that hubcap looks like it’s spinning, and no one inside that car?! spooky!
Reminds me of the Vidiians in Star Trek: Voyager. A disease-plagued people that graft other races’ organs & stuff onto them to stay alive. This must be their van.

Hopefully it’s attached to a towbar, and being towed to the junkyard. And yes, it was posted once before, on failblog.

I want to see it, I want to see it, c’mon, please??
Detective Kinsak:
Are you suggesting that someone took a picture of a perfectly normal car going down the road and then used Photoshop to completely remove the driver from the front seat and to create this hodge-podge of metal, foam and rivets… and yet they weren’t skilled enough to paste a non-spinning wheel on the car? Or do you think they took a picture of this awesome kludge and figured they could give it more credibility by Photoshopping a spinning wheel onto it? Do tell.
1. Car melts.
2. Cletus sees melted car.
3. Cletus steals plexiglass from the nearest Chucky Cheese playscape.
4. Cletus gets welder from Mr. Bertha down the road.
5. Cletus takes piece of steel off his trailer.
6. Cletus welds steel on car.
7. Cletus liberally applies duct tape, electrical tape.
8. Cletus pointlessly tries to spray paint shut the gap in the fix.
9. spray paint doesn’t work.
10. Cletus drives to Wal-Mart, admired by friends for his awesome custom car.
Just add a whole bunch of Bondo, some old beer cans (free sheet metal, yay!) and it looks just like the car a friend of ours used to have! Ah, the good ol’ days, when we were broke and creative… and possibly the same time we acquired all the beer cans LOL
I saw cars like this in Ecuador…by the side of the road! Good God, they’re still DRIVING this thing? This is a public-safety hazard!
This is also why I will put a BIG statue of Saint Christopher in my car when I’ve saved enough…because there is no limit to ingenuity or stupidity. That is a fatality waiting to happen. God help us all.
Another Definite Piece of PhotoShoppery.
Why So? … oooh, it’s so well done, that terrible mess! … But mainly, The wheel on the road is spinning fast, scenery rushes by, … But there is nobody Driving? … hhhmmm?
Why don’t they just make vehicles like this illegal and force people into buying new cars with huge government funded incentives? Hello answer to fixing the failing North American car industry!

Wasn’t this on here just the other day?
“Mo-om, it is splashing me again!” “BILLY, give Jimmy the spray foam please!”
Does this qualify under Cash for Clunkers?
This is strangely beautiful, in its own way.
“…There. Now all I have to do is park this exactly where it was when they left, cross my fingers, and hopefully Mom & Dad won’t suspect a thing.”
I’m sure this was posted recently.

so culd all ssoooooo
That must have been one hell of an accident.
For God’s sake, just take it as a loss!
Kinda reminds me of all the work Michael Jackson did to his face.
That’s a new invention: homemade, bulletproof, non-transparent car windows! But, this inventor will die poor
@notanengineer
the owner of this car probably watched “scrapyard challenge” too often … best source for fixitjob-inspiration

Just thank God this guy’s not a dentist. Or a plastic surgeon.

@teebo
STV FTW
This was def on Fail Blog a few days ago. That’s why it looks familiar.
Ghetto cruser
cruiser
Frankencar!
Well, I guess I won’t bother sending in the pic of my own car’s plexiglass window secured nicely with clear packing tape.
I mean, what would really be the point? I’ve lost already.
To people saying this was posted already… it was on Fail Blog the other day.
It deserves to be here though.
LMAO @ Aliison!
I know, right? LOL
He should have just made the entire car from Mighty Putty…

It needs some zero mile per hour tape.
@teebo

@Lissa
I agree! …but a darn good idea just the same
Poor mid 90′s Corolla Wagon. It never stood a chance…
MAD MAX style
Now it just needs a gatling gun on top!
Did you notice the tire looks like is spinning fast, but there is no driver!?
Photoshoped
It’s probably being towed.

When a can of WalMart Bondo just isn’t in the budget this month…
The brand-spanking-new GreenPeace “Recycled Roaring Runabout”!
It’s moving…but who’s driving???
show me the carfax.

look at the wheel motion, it’s actually being driven!
No, the wheel is just out of focus!!!
Those must be Obama’s so-called “death panels” we’ve been hearing so much about…

OMG thats Genius! Whoever did it, plz pimp my ride!
That’s a serious franken-car. It probably runs on brains, so it’s environmentally conscious, too!
It’s obvious they’re getting ready for the sequel to Death Race. Just wait until they install the smoke screen, minigun and RPGs.
Why don’t they just make vehicles like this illegal and force people into buying new cars with huge government funded incentives? Hello answer to fixing the failing North American car industry!
And every few years… it will rise again
And this! gooooes……here! now where did I put my car?
