So awful I had to share.

I stumbled upon this on eBay and felt compelled to share the retinal pain.

That could be the most obscure automotive tribute in history.

Wow... You could scrap all that garbage for the buy it now price lol

Looks like a perfect LeMons car!

In reply to z31maniac:

His other cars on eBay would make great LeMons themes too, if not for price.

Mare of steel lol. More like nightmare of steel.

That made my eyes hurt :(

What? You can't see the tie-in to Vikings, Moorish kings and a lost treasure?

It's a common known fact that Viking's invented ball rivets...

I am finding myself rivited to the action of that auction

What is awful in this auction? I think its a good decision to sell this old one and a buy a new one.Anyway this cars is looking so good and old.

How in the berkeley do you invest $25,000 but wind up with no engine!?

I think you added a couple of zeroes to that. More like 250 at pep boy's.

I think the 25k might be accurate, if you count shipping prices. He had to have cleaned out every Pep Boys in a 500 mile radius and started ordering more garbage online.

Ok, it's a car that was built as a tribute to a movie that had no cars in it, and had nothing to do with cars?
I know it's early on a Monday morning, so tell me if I'm missing something.

My thoughts excactly. Strip the interior, add a cage, done. Not for the $2500 buy-in, tho...

Methinks this gentleman means to impose upon us his intimate knowledge of the use of self propelled watercraft...

I smell a smarter than the average canoe. Might as well nip it in the bud now before the canned pork starts to fly.
