Reminds me of these types of Miata builds...

That Vette just needs toughened up a bit, tube style front bumper and plate, sliders, tube rear bumper with integrated spare carrier, and lights.

Properly setup, I'd cruise that jalopy.

How about a lifted Smart Car? The guy that built this also has a lifted 4wd Mercedes 500E. The orange car in the background is also his. It's a BMW 2002 gasser, straight axle and blown sbc.

is that even an actual smart car anymore? looks like it's 95% custom work, with a smart car body thrown in for shits and giggles.

I would say it's not a Smart Car anymore. It's got a sbc mounted in the back facing rearward.

Fender flares are a nice touch. I'm sure there's a story behind THOSE.
I mean, just putting the wheels and tires gains you about 5" of height, but where do you find FENDER FLARES to fit a VETTE?
Looks more like he fitted the vette to the flares …

Somehow, whenever I look at it, all I ever see is lawn edging or a modified version of this…

Things like that 'vette make a guy think.. "what in counsin f*cking tarnation is going on here?"

Things like that are bred from too much sun, too many beers, and a couple big bong rips.

Things like that are FUN.

I approve.
