Buy This Insane Steam Punk Show Car
Read the full story on Backfire News If you're been on the hunt for a car like no other, check out this completely insane steam punk show car that just hit the market. While it looks like a movie prop or some weird art installation piece, it is in fact a running and driving automobile guaranteed to blow people away anywhere you take 'The Metamorphosis,' it was built Los Angeles artist Baron Margo and fabricator Jaime Martinez. To craft this creation, they used a 1984 Volkswagen van, transforming it into a steam punk masterpiece. You might have caught the episode of Jay Leno's Garage where this thing was featured and been floored at it back then. Now it could be sitting in your garage and you could be behind the steering wheel. The seller says the radically transformed VW runs 'good' and that it has a custom interior. We wish there were more photos of the inside since the only one included in the listing is through a window and it shows little. But we bet if you're serious about buying this ride, the seller could supply more. This is the kind of vehicle that will win at car shows and wow people everywhere you go. It will get strangers asking questions, even people who know literally nothing about cars. After all, how many times do you see something that looks like a steam punk submarine driving down the road? Nothing else out there looks like this original piece of art. While The Metamorphosis has a title, it's currently registered as non-operational. We don't know what it would take to register the thing where you live, so you might want to do some due diligence before making a purchase. See this car's listing for yourself here.
