Rebecca Caldwell’s Carthedral.




Rebecca Caldwell of West Oakland, California built this amazing, street legal, art car (well actually "cars" - there’s a VW bug on top of the hearse. From the website:
Q: Do you get hassled by the police?A: Nope. They have left me alone so far. As long as I obey traffic laws, I am not doing anything illegal. There aren’t any laws against decorating a car or designing your own car. as long as you comply with vehicle codes, use common sense, and drive consciously. I have met many officers who just want to look, take pictures, or ask questions. It’s almost as if they forget for a moment that they are police and they become little kids again…but there’s probably gonna be that one cop out there who’s gonna try to get me for something. They have to realize that I would be stupid to try and get away with anything illegal in that car…I mean, come on. I can just hear it over the police radio: "….the suspects are heading west bound goin about 60 mph….a little faster on the downhill…be on the lookout for a…….black …1971 gothic cathedral…I repeat….1971…. gothic cathedral….the suspects are thought to be armed with a welder and a caulking gun…"
