just put down the hammer and back away slowly...

I bet that thing would top out on the road at about 35-40.

I honestly don't know how to describe this.

Speaking of trikes, I'm in the process of designing an electric trike truck (think an electric Mazda Go/T2000) that I'll start building later this year, and if all goes according to plan, I expect to see it appear in this thread once I'm done

I've saw this junk rambling around when I was in Denver.

I think the person who owns this lives in the city I work in.

Not a weld-job, but this qualifies.  Coronavirus bug out vehicle.  Yikes.

$3200-Firm for a 160k vic with a hole cut in the roof sounds like a stellar deal :V

Decent idea. Terrible execution.

I daily a 2007 Odyssey and I am questioning why anyone would modify a sedan to perform the functions of a van. Just buy a van...

[derf]

I could see doing one of those expandable tents on a station wagon.  But not a sedan.

I can't get it to show a preview, and there is no welding here, but I feel it qualifies. Though it does look well done.

A Levi's CJ-5 with a 304 V8 and less than 40k on it............IMO he'd get more than the $7k asking price if he took that CABin off the damn thing!

I totally agree Wahoo. I like doing woodworking projects and appreciate good projects but that is an abomination. For the most part wood and vehicles don't mix, this is the perfect example of how not to mix the two. I also wonder how much weight he added compared to even a stock hard top, let alone a soft top.

They grindededed them down so you can't see em

[gogmorgo]

The grinder gives wood a nice finish, too.

 Pete has another thread going somewhere that I thought this would be a better fit in, but I'm on my work computer and couldn't find it without firefox/internet explorer crashing on me, so I tossed it here. It fits in the WTF theme at least.

[gogmorgo]

Found another one scrolling through FB just now. 
Gotta admit, someone with skill went to pretty great effort to do something that probably cost more and took more time to complete than a junkyard bumper skin would’ve been to install.
