IFSM - Interactive Functional Scuplture Mobile by Ken
Photo By Harod Blank
Ken from Bizbee, Arizona is the proud owner and creator of the IFSM - Interactive Functional Sculpture Mobile. I am not sure what kind of art car it is but its covered in all kinds of recycled objects and gifts given to Ken over the years.
I especially like the Mona Lisa on the door and the sign on the front side fender that says: "Take a photo, leave a buck". Nice work Ken:) This photo was sent in by Queen Becky

WhaleMobile For Sale - Going Slow
Ever thought of driving your very own WhaleMobile? Well now is your chance and for the very low low price of $150 this blubbering beauty can be yours today. The WhaleMobile is listed on Craigslist located in Cape Girardeau and the contact number is 573-334-4363.
It was built on the frame of a 1986 Yugo Cabrio with 38k Miles by the owners grandfather after it the body was badly damaged in a freak hailstorm. Grandpa got this crazy idea in his head to turn this thing into a whale car. How weird, you wake up one day and decide to make an art car, you start building, people think you are strange and your whole life makes a turn for the interesting.
Anyways, the WhaleMobile has new tires, working headlights, a lever inside the cockpit controls the whale tail and a working blow hole that shoots water. Perfect for parades and kids parties, not street legal yet but I am sure its sea worthy.

Jet Powered Bicycle is Spelled "Crazy"
The only way to spell Jet Powered Bicycle is C-R-A-Z-Y because that is what you have to be to ride this thing. Its on way to get to work faster than your average cyclist, but make sure the brakes work.

I am sorry to announce the passing of The Super Duper Trooper Raygun a Toyota SUV created by Robynn Sanders who recently finished a painting a MINI Couper called Animated Robots. It seems that the Raygun had a close encounter of the wrong kind and is now headed to the "Yard" on its last and final mission.

Vehicle Description: The Sentra now know as "Sentrasaurus" for it's abstract dinosaur resemblance began it's transformation into an art car in late 2008 for the Houston Art Car Parade which it has since appeared in 2009 and 2010. The exterior consists of a skin made of mosaic stained glass and mirror structures (spikes) creating a spine down the center. The entire vehicle is covered with mosaic glass which is glued on with silicone adhesive and was later grouted to fill in the cracks. The mirror spikes are soldered together and are screwed into the body of the vehicle. The added weight from the extra glass, silicone, grout, and mirrors is unknown although we would probably estimate around 150-200lbs.

LightMobile from sietske tjallingii on Vimeo.
The VW Lightmobile was the first in the urban UFOs series created by Eric Staller in 1985 that was covered with 1659 lamps and computerized to produce 20 different patterns of light flowing over the car. I should have had this amazing art car on Art Car Central from day one, but better late than never.

Nissan Z Art Car Invades The Streets - By Ted Mikulski
This hand drawn Nissan Z was created by artist Ted Mikulski using paint pens that took 160 hours or 11 days to bring to life. This art car was a reflection of an idea he had that art should not only be designated for areas like galleries and studios, but taken to the streets. The artwork has several themes including Pac-Man, Where's Waldo, Space Invaders (my all time favorite video game growing up), Tetris, Mario and others, all weaved together in a comprehensive abstraction. The car was then clear coated to permanently seal in the art work and was unveiled at the New Britain Museum of American Art in July of 2010. It is no longer a car, its an art car, nice work Ted.
