More of an experiment than anything else = )

Very cool!  As others have commented, the use of tires is pretty
original...
But I really wanted to comment on the chrome headlights.  They make me
think
of the barbar's song from Man of La Mancha:

   DON QUIXOTE: spoken
              Hand it over!

   BARBER: spoken
              But this is nothing but a shaving basin!

   DON QUIXOTE: spoken
              Shaving basin!! Dost not know what this really is?

              sung
              Now Golden Helmet of Mambrino,
              with so illustrious a past...
              too long hast thou been lost to glory,
              Th'art reunited now at last.

              Golden Helmet of Mambrino,
              there can be no hat like thee.
              thee and I now, 'ere I die, now
              will make golden history.
