Description

Lincoln stretch limo covered in coins
The problem is, you can’t say that when you’re driving this 1988 Lincoln Town Car stretch limousine because it’s literally covered with 23,000 English pennies each plated with 24 karat gold! In spite of the added weight the car is drivable.
Ken Burkitt of Niagara Falls created this golden brick of a car, and when we say the car is covered, we mean it. There isn’t a single inch of this car’s body that isn’t covered in coins that are twisted, curved, and bent to fit the original shape of the limo.
The coins are uniformly laid out and held in place with a shiny clear sealant. From a distance, you have no idea what makes the golden auto glow.



Exif: F Number: 8, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/125 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 50.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 6D
