Yea, that title may be clickbait but I will deliver. While gathering parts for my 66 restore, I've gathered some spares. Those parts have crossed paths with some historical ATV's and the pic are the result.
SHal I weld up some brackets and have a wild thing?

Looking at these pics I'm realizing I could put some weight out back and make it a wheelie car. Shocked

You guys stink! 80+ views and nobody replies? I'm blessed with a spare set of fenders, IF I bolt together a lift off body that resembles a type 3 and lay it over this buggy (kind of like a mini John Force top fuel funny car) for a parade or a car show? There is nothing like it anywhere! I promise I wont damage any good parts. Yikes! tough crowd!

In my town they have a duct tape parade. People make all sorts of things out of it and have a parade and a costume contest. I've finished in the money last time. In that world, this thing would be a home run. performance art perhaps? How about tricked out anti zombie twist with a gattling paintball gun? Hello Comicon!

One of the most ridiculous ideas I've seen in a long while.

So ridiculous that you HAVE to do it!

Yup, go for it. Maybe even make a cardboard "hood" to finish up the front. Very Happy
Same could be done in the rear too.

Yes, a complete "skin" would be awesome!

Guys, I HAVE a hood I could cut down, a front apron I could section and even a rear that could be donor parts. To use those, I'd need to start cutting and I did not want to post that and make some of you mad. I got a lot of banged up parts along the way, perfect for this wackiness.
Here is the hood I can use (on the white car) and the front and rear pictured in blue.
