We, at Automotto, are always on the hunt for the most finest and unusual art cars and the latest entrant to the category is the “The Lizard King Car”. This car had the honor of receiving the first prize in the Houston Art Car Parade, which it definitely deserved. Uncountable pieces of mirror shards, paint, plaster, beads, coins and other objects were perfectly glued and embedded, so that its title could be justified. Nineteen students from Rebecca Bass’ Waltrip, Texas High School Art Car Class took 3 months to complete this incredible project.
Even after going through the pics carefully, it is very difficult to pinpoint the model that lies behind all the stuff imposed on it. If you are curious to know, I must tell you that it’s a 1990 Honda Civic Hatchback. The name, Lizard King, was a special tribute to Jim Morrison and The Doors. No need to get confused about the relation between the two given above, it was just that one of their songs was titled, Celebration of the Lizard.
