Here's some more innovative thinking. The sultan of Brunei had Ferrari custom build him a handful of these Ferrari station wagons. You truly can do anything with an unlimited budget!

Nick Mason from Pink Floyd had a Rolls or Bentley wagon custom built because he had Irish Wolfhounds.

Of course, I think he drove a Ferrari before the band got together ;)
 
If whomever built that Merc were going to do a whole series
of builds in that same manner, what would you all want to see him do next? Olds Chevy Mopar?
 
Reminds me of the Tom Daniel models I built as a kid. Also kinda has that Ed Roth feel to it, and because I'm an aircraft mechanic that digs hot rods I gotta say.....I LIKE IT.
 
Hey Captain, I think some of them ole boy is jealous.... Some serious out o de box thinkin went into that ride. I'd rather recycle ole sheetmetal, or aluminun on a rat that let the grinder chew em up......
 
Cpt.,
I love the way you hit the "Sarcasm Switch" at will.

As far as the car above goes, it all depends on if you would ever be able to ask the original builder. He could have been planning on building a t-bucket, Who knows. He might have just built the car and planned on building a body around it and ran out of steam, had the old cesna laying around and , TA-DA, "Look what I did". We may never know what he was thinking (or smokin for that matter) when he did this. One thing is for sure, this is the only one like it anywhere.
I completely agree with Riverrat44, that is some outside the box thinking right there.

Love it or hate it, it is a one off custom.....
