The WORST thing I have ever seen done to a passenger car was the one that was at the Stagecoach Stop in the Irish Hills (of MI) that was a Presidential observation car (I think it was President Eisenhowers car) and it was turned into a "Haunted house".  I'm glad they kept the car but doing what they did to it makes my stomach turn a bit.
