Monster Truck Your Smart Car

Oct 1, 2009 05:00 PM

Going green doesn't mean we have to give up classic American traditions like Monster Truck rallies. This cute little Smart car was converted into a Monster Truck by Greek rally champ, Stefan Attart.

According to Edmunds:

"The head-turning Smart combines the body shell of the existing Fortwo with the industrial-grade four-wheel-drive underpinnings of parent company Mercedes-Benz's Unimog 406. The result? A towering two-seat monster truck dubbed the Forfun2.

With a height of 145.6 inches, the Forfun2 towers over its road-going sibling by a whopping 84.6 inches. Power comes from an inline six-cylinder diesel engine. To optimize its off-road ability, the suspension can be manually raised and lowered via air springs."
