Iguana Art Car - For Sale

Iguana Art Car - For Sale - Side View
Iguana Art Car - For Sale - Front View

The Iguana Art Car is a one of a kind art car and is for sale on ebay for only $2,500. It is a 2000 Dodge Caravan (with a trailer) that has been converted into a 42 ft iguana that gets a lot of attention everywhere it goes. Really? Wow had no idea that car like that would get so much attention. It took the artist 2 months to build it, and now they want to part with it. I love it.

Who knew Brad Pitt had a cool looking chopped motorbike?

Nice photography!

Doesn't everyone need to see a good pinup queen now and then? But what really caught my eye were the exhaust pipes on the bike.. . that is unusual
