Just browsing through the Collectors cars section on Ebay...........

That is hideous!!

man that is hideous,what were they thinking

Apparently it will not devalue!

Looks like a flash 'Jeepney' -like they have in The Philippines. If you haven't been there it is hilarious.
These things are like a freelance taxi truck for people. You just flag one down pay the driver, get in the back and tell him when you want to stop etc etc.
They were originally made from surplus WWII Jeeps - hence the shape - however they have grown a style of their own over there. Stacks of chrome and horns!.

funny people at shannons. Just begging for an insurance job isnt it. Wonder what it was worth before the customising. 110kw 4 speed auto. Probably the fastest 1929 model mercedes out there. yeehaa.

I find it hard to believe that Mr Benz would approve and certain his daughter would not have liked it

Appears to be the cab section of a Ssangyong Musso...they are pretty ugly to start with....until Dr.Frankenstein got his hands on that one!!

I am sure it attracts more laughs rather than admiring glances when driving down the street!

I agree with pod....what were they thinking?????

yes, a Musso for sure....i had one once....shame...

Jesus Mick.....dont admit that around here, I could tell it was a Musso , without even looking at the pic, you know these Musso owners always crap on about Merc this and Merc that, and man they are so fugly I think this thing is 'almost' an improvement.

ha, yeh......i only had it for 6 months - does that help?

Must admit, it was freakin quick - ate sooooooooooooooo much fuel. Cost me almost $3k in repairs so i got rid of it - traded it in at a car yard - they got it sent back to them from the new owners under their 3month warranty term and it cost the car yard $3.5k for a new computer and other bits. Piece of crap - but it was quick and comfy, toed beautifully.

I want a great wall ute! That is awesome
