George Barris' Bugazzi

    On the outside, this George Barris creation looks like your typical 70's neoclassic extravagance. Not unlike a Stutz. Actually, the only thing on the outside that's uniquely fugly are the square, gold-plated headlight surrounds.


    However inside is a different story. In a nutshell, it looks like a richly appointed 70's bathroom threw up in there. In an effort to save weight, fake wood panelling was replaced with real marble. What appears to be a toilet paper holder sprouts from the passenger door. Said passengers are less important than the vintage television that sprouts for the floor, however. Perhaps the pièce de résistance is the flooring, which is made of persian rug. Also, from these pictures it looks like the bottom spoke of the steering wheel is covered in some kind of white fur. The rug theme continues into the trunk, which also contains an elaborately tailored spare wheel cover.
