There's so many things you could do, but shouldn't.... <br /> <br />.....wear down your brake pads until it takes you half a mile to stop, then it'd be kinda like a locomotive <br /> <br />.....put a strobe light on your car roof (aka the original UP M10001) <br /> <br />.....route your exhaust up through the roof <br /> <br />.....remove your gas tank, cut it in two to make two gas tanks, then re-attach them to the sides under the car doors <br /> <br />.....take out your entire drive train and steering chassis, create two sets of two axle wheelsets front and rear, and mount your front and rear wheelsets on center plates <br /> <br />.....stick old air hoses and electric cords out of the grill and out of the trunk (strictly for show, but I suppose you could make them functional somehow...) <br /> <br />.....put a sand dome on the roof, and run your sand pipes to the front of your drive wheels (hmmm, that might actually come in handy this winter. Where's Red Green when you need him?) <br /> <br />....install suicide doors, keep them open while driving by some college town's ugliest sorority, then I guess you'd have some sort of a "cow catcher".....
