1959 Cessna 172 or 1968 Volkswagen Beetle
Lots of cars have wings. Most Porsches sport some kind of small automatically deployed wing element from the back and even the lowly Toyota Corolla has a small trunk wing in many configurations…but this next car…it has a wing. A real air foil. It is the stubby remnants of a Cessna 172 wing that has been amputated so it will fit into a garage and that is just the start. Find this 1968 Volkswagen Beetle that has been combined with a 1959 Cessna 172 offered for $28,500 in Cape Coral, FL via eBay. Tip from Kester.
From the seller:
For sale is my 1968 VW bug chassis with a 1959 Cessna 172 body. This is a complete custom build, one of a kind car.
It has a working flaps and the prop will spin on a trolling motor that is controlled from inside of the car. It also has a backup camera that stays on full-time like a rearview mirror. Strobe lights under the belly and on the tip of the plane. It also has the red and green lights on the wings. It’s still has almost all of the airplane gauges on the dash.
The car is titled as a 68 VW and has a clear Florida title.
The car is a really a lot of fun,
It car draws a crowd everywhere I go. It also wins trophies at all the local car shows if that’s your thing.

The reason for the sale is a start of a new project and really just need room in the garage.

“ It car draws a crowd everywhere I go.â€
I’ll bet it plane attracts crowds like cat hair in a suit
Cat hair ON a suit. Or cat hair to a suit.
I’ll admit that a suit stuffed with cat hair would draw a crowd though.
Maybe the iPhone’s random word substitution is on to something here.
It attracts crowds like a cat on fire wearing a fur hat.
One good gust is all it’s going to take for this thing to go flying into on-coming traffic.
Yeah but, props to whoever got that thing through the registration process.
Do you think the builder had a plan when he started this project or was he just winging it and then it really took off?
Feels like the price on this is a bit elevated.
I’m sorry…was that an airplane joke? I thought this was a cat joke forum?!
Bet it always lands on four wheels.
No stick, prop spins backwards, and oh yeah, $28,000. Granted, a real 172 starts at double that and goes up to 20x.
Spinning backwards? That was the reverse thruster…he was slowing down.
