PVC Pipe Pedal-Powered Porsche

Now how's that for alliteration? WOO! Anyway, this has already made the rounds, but if you haven't seen it yet, check this out. When you take a low-slung four wheel bike frame, a crap load of PVC pipe, miles of duct tape and about 1,000 hours, you, too can drive a Porsche without the high insurance payments.

Oh, yeah, it doesn't hurt to have super talented art maniac (Hannes Langeder) around to really make it happen.

Here we see said maniac, er, genius, with the chassis for this wonderful creation.

After a whole lot of bending, gluing and taping, he came out with this wonderful wireframe. It looks like the polygon layout for a CG Model. This guy is freakin' serious.

The final product is amazing....
