During our recent stay in Las Vegas for the SEMA show, we posed a question asking WINDING ROAD readers which car they thought was the very best for customizing. Not surprisingly, several of you picked the all-things-to-all-people Volkswagen Beetle as the number one tuner target.

Enter the 1977 Mini Mac found on eBay Motors. This utterly insane kit car attempts to turn the people’s car into a semblance of a truck built by long-haul icon Mack. The kit is so complete that one’s eye is almost tricked in to wondering what the donor vehicle could be. But as the details emerge, the shape of the windshield, the curve of the roof, and, oh, that engine bay under the truck’s bed, Mini Mac’s true origins come to light.

Have fun pursuing the gallery of images for this wondrously painted, and completely ill-conceived kit car.
