Just when you think you've seen every stupid looking thing ever made, 1968 Mohs' Ostentatienne Opera Sedan. Built by Mohs Seaplane Corporation of Madison, Wisconsin.

  1. The Mohs Ostentatienne...think I got the spelling right. It's the white walls that really set it off, don't you think?
    Yow.

  2. Dude, a Rolls Royce on acid! Mohs built floats for floatplanes in Madison WI. This beastie had 20-inch wheels and sealed-beam taillights. The chassis and engines were from International Havester and so a 304 or 549 V8 could be had. Standard equipment included a refrigerator, a 2-way radio that had a pair of base stations for home or office, a gold-inlaid Walnut instrument panel, velvet upholstery, Ming Dynasty carpeting, special safety bucket seats, a 110-volt converter, a butane furnace, and a multi-fuel-capable induction system. Moh's also created what would today be called a luxury SUV called the Safarikar also built on an IH chassis. The exterior of the Safarikar was completely covered in padded naugahyde.

    1. I saw the Safarikar in Vegas at that Casino that had the car collection museum... it was impressive, and I think I posted about it before
