How many custom features can you find ? Like the trailer hitch ? Looks sturdy enough to me. Would love to take it to U Haul and ask how big of a trailer I could rent.

It's got a lot going for it, but I'd like it better with 20 series tires.

Reynolds wrap!! Says so on the box.

What's even more amazing is someone spent a lot of time doing that.

Reynolds wrap or shiney aluminum colored duct tape?

Amazing they spent any time! "A lot of time" might be a slight exaggeration.

"the hood was so easy"

The "custom" features are ingenious! The trailer hitch, the "chopped" rear window, oh and the stealthy element of the silver is very "special"!!

Note the barbed wire fence nearby. Keeping someone out or keeping someone in?

Needs some cop spotlights too.

Recently I saw a Land Rover around here that was wrapped in faux-suede or alcantara...the entire vehicle was 'fuzzy'...actually looked kinda neat but can't imagine it will hold up well to dirt and usage.

Obviously, the desired choice of car to break someone out of the prison behind it... Supplies on the roof are the requisite escape tools, and the tinfoil easily peels off quickly to reveal another colored car to avoid being caught. Well thought-through plan; no doubt.

Needs color sanding and buffing.

Cool in the summer sun, or in any setting.

I bet the owner has a matching hat. biggrin.gif

It has the texture of furnace foil tape. Sweet.

I'm in favor of cars like this. Modern cars have gotten so incredibly boring. Used to see creatively weirdly bad cars in third world countries, but even those are going away.

How that rolling POS is allowed to roll down a public road is beyond me. Things have changed dramatically in our country. It appears to have a CA license plate...of course. I hope a LEO sees that junker and runs it through a full "safety inspection".

You obviously haven't spent much time in Riverside. av-943.gif

Is this really you new car Bruce? poke.gif

If that is an example of what is rolling around Riverside, I can say with confidence, I will do all I can to avoid the area. I try to minimize encounters with potentially unlicensed, uninsured, illegals who hit you then abandon their "car" and flee. beer3.gif

It's new surface was obviously designed to reflect and avoid radar detection.....very stealth.

That's normal. It is how we cover rust holes in our cars here!

It's a Demo for the new competitor to Xpel wraps! biggrin.gif

How many burritos are left out in the cold to die before getting eaten? This guy took all of the aluminum foil!

Yes it was parked on a public road and this was a special car even in Riverside. I like to say to each his own but when it impacts safety of others they they should have mandatory safety inspections. I see cars with totally shot shocks on the highway with the wheels bouncing and only making intermittent contact with the road. I see he did opt for some smaller rims and lowered the car.
And no this in not my new ride.
I like Matt's idea that the foil is to protect from aliens from stealing our thoughts.
But I think aliens would realize this guy has no thoughts worth stealing. It is a personal expression but just not sure what is being expressed.
If it is still there I have to check out the interior. Maybe lawn chairs bolted to the floor?
