Those Ziploc containers are crazy resilient. They, like, totally work in the microwave and stuff.

Only Rush Limbaugh could come up with a creation like that turn signal, though.

Spotted these beauties locally.

The Del Sol had 600lbs of owner and girlfriend in it. Both were just as scary as the car.

Didn't get a pic of the interior, but he had the seats, center console, steering wheel, and floor mats done up too. And he was parked right in front of the main entrance of the mall to show it off.

Maybe they packed on those pounds to save themselves from having to cut their springs?

Not sure if this suits the thread, but I had a laugh specially the smug look this kid has.

Is every Del Sol a giant piece of rice crap?

There is a video of that kid's homemade Lambo further back in the thread in case anyone missed it. It is an amazing piece of Batmobile garbage.
