Judging by the public reaction to the car, we\u2019d certainly say so. From building wheels out of tools to running cars on lighter fluid, the team at Garage54 are well-versed in building unusual creations. Hailing from Russia, the team posts on both their Russian channel and their over-dubbed English channel. In this instance, they have transformed an old Soviet-era Lada sedan into a crazy, fully-transparent car. To achieve this, the team cut out the body panels of their old \u2018ultra light weight\u2019 lada car which resembles a giant sponge. By the end of the process, all that was left was the metal \u2018skeleton\u2019 of the Lada. Next, the car was resprayed from yellow to white, and the panels replaced with what appears to be some form of plastic sheeting. This was riveted onto the frame of the car, then \u2018stretched\u2019 using heat to form taught panels. Once complete, Garage 54\u2019s host Vlad casually says \u201cto make it drive, we need an engine. So we\u2019ll put one in.\u201d Long-time viewers of the channel are familiar with their typically laid-back attitude, making light work of even big tasks such as this. Having re-installed the engine, interior and other parts to make the car somewhat road-legal, Vlad then takes it out for a drive. Given how crazy some of their projects are, this car must\u2019ve drawn the most attention they\u2019ve ever received. \u201cThis autumn weather is a bit of a downer\u2026 lets drive out on the road [and] hopefully cheer some people up\u201d he says, climbing into the car for the first time. Out on the road, Vlad says it\u2019s like \u201cdriving an aquarium!\u201d Driving past strangers on the streets, people literally stopped in their tracks to stare at the car. Reactions were mixed, with older generations in particular looking completely perplexed at Vlad\u2019s strange creation. Thumbs up from strangers and phone photos were also a common theme, as many people were shocked by the strange creation. \u201cThe car\u2019s appearance is pretty unusual, it\u2019s quite cool. I\u2019m getting looks from both youngsters and older folk\u201d he says driving down the street. Pulled up at a set of lights, a stranger says the car is \u201csick\u201d while admiring the work. With heads turning everywhere he drives, Vlad and the Garage54 team have truly created a one-of-a-kind car with this insane Lada.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Russian YouTubers shock the public with crazy transparent car YouTube: Garage54YouTubers Garage54 are well-known for their whacky builds, but this might be one of their best yet.
