Recently a very unusual car was spotted driving in the Silverlake streets of Los Angeles. This looked like it was straight out of the Wacky Racers cartoon and displayed a highly aerodynamic frame, complete with a silver body, and bright red wheels. Due to its unusual look, a shocked family could be seen in the background also getting a photograph of this rare vehicle.

Clearly, whoever built this knew what they were doing and to build something like this from scratch and get it fully operational shows an advanced understanding of car mechanics. The image was originally uploaded to Reddit, where users explained who the owner of the car was and the backstory behind the eccentric-looking motor.

It turns out that the driver in question was Baron Margo and this is his famous Rocket Car which has gained nationwide attention. Over the years, Margo has built several, similar custom cars and was even featured in an episode of American Pickers where he showed off his custom-built car.

According to Margo, he mentioned that his sculptures were influenced by his passion for car models, leading him to undertake the ambitious project of constructing a full-scale automobile. This endeavor served as the catalyst for his creation of the rocket car. Following the completion of the rocket-powered vehicle, the artist enthusiastically took it on a ride through town, and it certainly caught the attention of many.
