Awesome Scrap Automobile

<div style="text-align: justify;">What you see here is a pile of scrap metal transformed by artistic vision into a full-scale replica of the iconic Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing. It's made entirely of reclaimed car parts and random pieces of scrap by German firm Giganten Aus Stahl, which roughly translates as Giants of Steel. It's just one of a number of creations the studio offers to those with enough, um, scrap to buy the unique creations.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">In addition to the Gullwing we found similar replicas of a classic Porsche Spyder and pre-war Auto Union grand prix racer.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you like what you see, don't expect them to come cheap. The Gullwing fetches a princely EUR 69,000 or USD 96,000. The Porsche and Auto Union are available for EUR 39,000 (USD 54,000) and EUR 54,000 (USD 75,000), respectively. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwTyrUKxdTgGwhvnIJH-tzQwOcI1e7xQ4IYyaehJ1ZO-Nh3Ti9u1R-QaNlWgCqE4skPLq7GUiVVdIosISGFJS-wMyYtpuL3SqaurATdSdFo5AG387dQfBUFb_CalayBqF6laIHbC4SLJK3/s1600/Scrap-Metal-Mercedes-Benz-300SL-Gullwing-001.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="428" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwTyrUKxdTgGwhvnIJH-tzQwOcI1e7xQ4IYyaehJ1ZO-Nh3Ti9u1R-QaNlWgCqE4skPLq7GUiVVdIosISGFJS-wMyYtpuL3SqaurATdSdFo5AG387dQfBUFb_CalayBqF6laIHbC4SLJK3/s640/Scrap-Metal-Mercedes-Benz-300SL-Gullwing-001.jpg" width="640"></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><i>Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing</i></span></td></tr></tbody></table><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgln223I14zLTARCesWz1TscXC8TQYMvcMZzNxxUqKQeqcOz8LRPZUV15u8T_zg9UekfHKTAHdxSSVIqrDEj2tOE2HV5NajPAxm37Pad0Kc8bIjtAw1u3Dt9b0qnp7M1c6P9PCIRO9rR9gY/s1600/Scrap-Porsche-Spyder-001.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="425" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgln223I14zLTARCesWz1TscXC8TQYMvcMZzNxxUqKQeqcOz8LRPZUV15u8T_zg9UekfHKTAHdxSSVIqrDEj2tOE2HV5NajPAxm37Pad0Kc8bIjtAw1u3Dt9b0qnp7M1c6P9PCIRO9rR9gY/s640/Scrap-Porsche-Spyder-001.jpg" width="640"></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><i>Porsche Spyder</i></span></td></tr></tbody></table><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxFb4SFufNUemfnhH8nGhVwl5jIoNmxSUqb1BiQAYRAd6enYxurnoQPpPcb6rNmCoYaDC98-MoEwtqHuQe-4tHrBLyLLgqE5byJJWdmWy0ri8yDRVlFCeusdQhcT66gJLRn0MpI3SnC_f9/s1600/Scrap-Auto-Union-001.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="428" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxFb4SFufNUemfnhH8nGhVwl5jIoNmxSUqb1BiQAYRAd6enYxurnoQPpPcb6rNmCoYaDC98-MoEwtqHuQe-4tHrBLyLLgqE5byJJWdmWy0ri8yDRVlFCeusdQhcT66gJLRn0MpI3SnC_f9/s640/Scrap-Auto-Union-001.jpg" width="640"></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><i> Auto Union Grand Prix Racer</i></span></td></tr></tbody></table><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><a href="http://aibob.blogspot.com/2011/09/awesome-scrap-automobile.html#more">Click to read more »</a>
