One of the World's Ugliest Cars Comes Out of Hiding

I kind of like it. The one thing I really hate in cars is the quality of being conformist, being ‘bland and inoffensive’. You can say many things about Sir Vival, but you cannot say it is conformist.

In the one-off category we have the Aurora, the Tucker Torpedo, a custom built RV, and another custom RV. (Those are just for starters.)

Weld together four Daleks, put them on a giant skateboard, and you get something like the Honda Fuya-Jo.

But… it’s cool and bad! They wouldn’t be dancing if it wasn’t cool and bad!

I think it resembles a Toyota Scion XB wagon, reflected in a funhouse mirror.

I’m just disturbed that they view the interior skateboard racks to be a selling point for a “four seater commuter.”

Someone MUST send this image to Jay Leno. I’m sure he’d buy it and lovingly restore it. When he goes, he’s going to leave a really amazing automobile collection.

Here is a little article about the Finnish man who created those last two bizarre stretches. Judging from his outfit and certain details on the vehicle, he appears to love America very, very much.

Rahko, a man with a true love for the essence of American automobiles, is part of a large Finnish community in Palm Beach County, the largest, in fact, outside of Finland. He’s also something of a demigod in the Art Car movement. (http://www.artcars.com/). But Rahko didn’t even know what Art Cars were when he made the Finn Jet. Alyx Kellington, the director of art education for the Palm Beach County Cultural Council, discovered Rahko’s Finn Jet when she was organizing an Art Car parade for Palm Beach. (Ms. Kellington graciously provided these photos for our website. Ellie Schorr provided the photos used in the magazine article, obviously unaware of our demented intentions for them.)

How is it that the largest Finnish community outside Finland in Florida?! I’d’ve guessed Michigan or Minnesota. (I didn’t even know any Finns growing up in Iowa. I always assumed -30° was too balmy for them come wintertime. I guess I was wrong - they were snowbirding it and building outrageously tacky cars.)

Sweet Jesus, it looks like what happens when a drunk Studebaker fucks a commuter train!

At last!
Someone comes up with the obvious (I was thinking some kind of amphibian miscegenation), but I’m new here, and only moderately twisted

Wow, those custom RVs look like they were used as stunt vehicles in Ghostbusters.
