I think that's a very cool idea!

Oh, and I'm glad to see you've incorporated the all-important stripper pole into your plans.

Most of them get boogered up by flame wars, so we're way ahead of the game. As someone pointed out, some big changes take a while, so who knows what transformations this one will bring! ...

I'll take that as a positive in the faced of our severe redirection.

The mirrors are all angled 45 degrees downward, so when someone looks at the car, all they see is reflected playa. Since the car will not be highly visible, it will have radar to sense whenever someone gets too close, and the radar will trigger a huge propane flame to shoot out the top of the stripper pole. I guess it would be called the flaming mirage. And Santa Cruz isn't that far:-)

I do want to see what crazy new rules DMV comes up with this year before doing much of anything with respect to art cars though...

Crossing 17 is a good test of any art car's roadworthiness. Maybe it should be a requirement.

I like your idea of a stripper pole stealth car. It does sound very Vegas. Olympic Gardens to be precise. Anyone have any idea how long before next year's art car specs get published? And is that even a concern? With the right creative license even a motorized warthog could have been described with a tie-in to the Vault of Heaven.

My boyfriend just bought a new car and we have considered turning his old one into a mutant vehicle...I have a great idea for an art car, but neither of us have the skills to create it.

And....(drum roll)....we live in Santa Cruz!

Anyone wanna work on an art car?

Mars, let's be bold and transform the NEW car. I'm hoping it's one of those swank new Chrysler 300C's those scream "chop me!"

If you're at the BM film festival at the RIio Theater on Saturday, look me up- I'm the tall middleaged guy with age-inappropriate mohawk and too young wife.
