"Street-Legal Chevy-Powered Giant Bumper Car Revives Childhood Favorite"

Dan Hryhorcoff of Pennsylvania built a 200% scale bumper car out of an old Chevy Aveo and a motorcycle, inspired by the 1953-model bumper cars at Knoebels amusement park. Measuring 13 feet long and twice the size of the original, the bumper car is fully street legal and features a rear-engine, rear-wheel-drive setup. Hryhorcoff, an engineer with a passion for mechanical projects, used his knowledge of fiberglassing to create the body. This is not his first project, as he previously built a larger version of a pedal car from the '50s.
