    In the world of custom cars, it's not out of the ordinary to see two different vehicle types mashed together. An old pickup truck might get the underpinings of a sports car so that it can haul and handle. An economy car can be turned into something far more interesting by swapping in a more powerful motor. There are even stranger custom jobs out there, of course, and a YouTube user recently posted one that takes things to a new extreme level.

  • Saleen Tesla Model S

    So far, electric vehicles haven't really caught the imagination of tuners in the way their combustion counterparts have. Aside from the occasional NISMO-tweaked Nissan Leaf or Brabus-fettled Smart Electric Drive, electric cars have been left well alone. Ever since Saleen announced it was developing an electric vehicle though, we've been intrigued to see the results. Even more so, when the company revealed its first electric vehicle would be based on the Tesla Model S--and now the company has released official sketches of the upgraded electric sedan.

  • 1973 six-wheel Range Rover

    Mercedes-Benz caused a buzz last year with the launch of its G63 AMG 6x6. Adding considerable width and an extra pair of wheels to its G-Wagen gave it presence like no other, and buyers from Riyadh to Dubai were seen frantically scribbling checks for the ultimate dune-busting Mercedes. The six-wheeled off-roader is not a new concept, however. That's clear enough from the 1973 six-wheeled Range Rover for sale on Car and Classic, for considerably less money than Mercedes wants for its AMG-badged behemoth. Built by British coachbuilder Carmichael, the vehicle has had a varied history but sadly...
