PLYMOUTH MINI
BUBBLE CAR by: STEVE HELLER
STEVE HELLER’S FAMOUS BUBBLE CAR, ...IT HAS TO BE SEEN
TO BE BELIEVED
This has got to be
one of the most fascinating pieces of automotive motion art on the planet.
World famous automotive artist Steve Heller has done it again. He has
created the world’s most awesome riding art piece. Seen on CNN news more
than 11 times when it was featured at the 2003 International Automobile Show
of 2003 at the Javits Center in New York City, the bubble car started out as
a 1948 4-door Plymouth sedan. Steve was inspired to create a little
mini-speedster from the body of this car in the most unique way.
What you see here
is the culmination of Steve’s ingenuity and free form art style. This car
has drawn crowds everywhere it has been featured. It is a working, driving
piece of art. Pin-striped by none other than Howie Nisgor, the bubble car’s
art work and paint job is very much like Steve’s 1959 Caddy Street Rod,
featured on this website currently. The entire body is mig-welded together
with the front wells of a 1965 Buick Skylark. A 1950 Olds was used to
transition between the Plymouth deck lid, fender and cockpit. This art is a
true collection of vintage automobilia.
This is an amazing
vehicle which can turn on its own axis and scoot along the lawn to the
delight of all on-lookers. Steve has decided to sell this well known piece
of his collection here on our website as a possible companion to his 1959
Caddy.
It has been sought
after by art and car museums all over the country, but Steve Heller wants it
sold here where the public can have access to his art form. We wish the new
winner/owner lots of luck as they try to explain this one of a kind classic
vehicle.
Note: This vehicle
is not road certified. It is still a riding mower drive and power system.
It is for off-road recreational and art collector use only.
