We had a camper that looked like this one when I was a kid...

Surely you can't drive those. Is that plywood body panels and wings? 
I especially like the front mounted oil coolers that are asking for a large rock to crack them open and cause some oil starvation to the engine.

I think a little rock puncturing the oil cooler is the least of the worries for a car like this.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers School of Design.
You wanna tap a market? Figure out the biggest interest at about age 12 or 13 for your target group and design to that.
Examples: I grew up with Hot Wheels, now I drive a 914
Tonka mighty dump truck/ Hummer
EZ bake oven/ Bling bling kitchen equipment
etc, etc.

besides the gravity-defying pipes, i notice a couple weird recurring themes:
1. externally-mounted coolers, with hoses sticking out the front grille. 
2. one or more headlights missing, or blacked out
