These art trucks were seen at the Finald Truck show recently which sorta reminds of the Japanese Decotora Trucks I wrote about some time ago. I love this first one, a Mercedes tanker truck covered with the face of Russel Crow actor of my favorite movie Gladiator

This Poor-Racer Art Car sculpture will exist for just 24 hours, - from midnight Saturday 14 March to midnight Sunday 15 March. Thats a longer life span than most flies.
The dramatically customised car is typical of Hirschhorn’s low budget transformations, and Poor-Racer has been developed specifically for Christchurch as part of the New Zealand-wide One Day Sculpture series. Hirschhorn says it references the global enthusiasm for car customisation evident in the lowered, louder, brighter and bolder DIY modifications seen parading city streets.

Can anyone explain Trashy Barbies Pink Mercedes to me. I am simply at a loss for words to wrap my head around this convertible pink budget mod with no doors and two roll bars. Even the word Mercedes is cut off, I don't know what this world is coming to.

I am expanding the types of cars I feature on art car central, frankly because I need more to do even though there are a ton of art cars out yet to be discovered. This Mercedes was made by D.A.D and on their web site they sell all kinds of accessories covered in crystal and a bunch of it. This car is what I call Ultra Bling and will be a regular part of this blog. Sorry I couldn't help my self.

It started off with finding this spray painted Mercedes at Burning Man and then just looked for more ever elusive Mercedes Art Cars. From personal experience there are not many out there willing to go off and paint outside the official Mercedes Benz color scheme. To the brave and the bold who have endured much as result of their creative "licence" I salute you, may you drive them a million miles.

When you see the Europeans cover a car in money and especially this Mercedes Money Art Car, it probably means that the economy is tanking and inflation is now here. This art car is brought to you by the criminals on Wall Street and their buddies in the government, that wasn't too bitter and cynical was it:) Next up the Bentley covered in $100 bills.

Artist Geraldine O. Lloyd is the creator of this beautiful 1975 Mercedes Benz called "Unchain My Love" which is also featured in Harrod Blank's Automorphosis. Her art car journey is very inspiring to me and especially those who have fought cancer for many years. She said that the reason she overcame cancer so many times is because she wanted to share her art car with others. Every time she was diagnosed with cancer she would work on her car and she would get through it one more time. The car is painted green with chain gold trim, and has a quite a few mannequins riding, also covered with ornate gold trim. Her car was recently featured at the Mercedes-Benz Museum, in Stuttgart, Germany, and the pictures taken by lindsey on her visit there, thank you!!!! Click on here name for more writings.
