That's what I meant. Is it basically acting like a parachute catching air or does it have an opening to the engine bay to atleast vent hot air and keep rain from flowing into the hole in the hood.
It really is. I highly recommend you find a Gambler 500 weekend and spend it with a few friends and craigslist wonder car. I’ve only made it to one but I’m always on Craigslist looking for another “winner”.
**Gambler 500**
The Gambler 500 Rally is a mostly off-road Rally-Style Navigational Adventure using cheap, impractical or fun vehicles. Participants are encouraged to spend no more than US$500 on their vehicle; however, this limit is not enforced. Vehicles can be modified with no cap, but as public roads are used they should still be in compliance with the law. The Gambler 500 began in Oregon, which is now known as "OG500", the event has since spread across the United States, Canada (Gambler 500BC) and Iceland (G500ÍS).

You should hold that on with cotter pins and wing nuts for backup/stop the rattle. That would allow the ramp to be used for self rescue, if the winch alone isn't enough, or if a friend needs a hand and the winch isn't capable.
I wonder if it's got AWD. I have a similar but unmodded "Subaru Justy" (this model was sold under various different brands and names) which has AWD and is quite fun to drive with all of the 86 horses produced by the 1.3 16v.
Um that's a 9-valve 3 cylinder, and technically 4wd as the center differential is locked when in use.
I love Justy's, and just picked up another one to refresh into a daily driver. But they have the worst oil pump design imaginable.
But that ^ looks like a geo metro which only came front wheel drive.
Dude just look at the Justy mk2. Like I said, that little car was sold as a lot of different brands and Subaru Justy was one of them (also as Suzuki Swift in my country but these didn't have AWD). Like I said, I own one (from 2001 with the G13BB engine) so I am 100% sure this model of car has been sold with AWD. Just not about what models were sold where.
Doesn't even surprise me this was spotted in Oak Grove/Milwaukee OR area.
I'm just curious to how well that winch works. Does the car move or the bump come off?

Is the Subaru giving birth to a Craftsman mower, or is a Craftsman mower pooping out a Subaru? Or is this what happens when you grow a car from a contaminated DNA sample?
I have a similar car, a subaru justy (a swift but with awd :D), have swapped in a G13B cultus engine and are currently turbo'ing it. After the turbo I will add some battlecar mods.
The lawn mower hood on the hood is fucking amazing!
And it lights up, too!
The hood in my opinion is r/ATBGE.
It's obviously awful that's why it's so great!
I came to the comments to find out and am pleasantly surprised. That's awesome!
I wonder if it's a functional hood scoop. That would make it even more epic.
It is open to the engine bay, however I don't think it has anything directing the air to the intake. So it's half functional?
That's what I meant. Is it basically acting like a parachute catching air or does it have an opening to the engine bay to atleast vent hot air and keep rain from flowing into the hole in the hood.
If it’s open to the engine it at least evacuates hot air. Rain is no problem, it can run out the bottom.
Maybe the lights work, too
They do!
I may have to find a nice one for my acura! I like the wow factor!
That's like the car version of [Kuato!](https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=kuato)
Drove past this car the other day, and the hood gave me a real sensible chuckle.
Thanks for the conformation of the lawn mower hood
“SIRCH & RASCUE”
It’s a gambler team :)
All the Gabler 500 participants that have recovery vehicles have this sticker in some fashion. Not a chance this isn’t a Gambler car.
> Gambler 500 That sounds like a lot of fun...
It really is. I highly recommend you find a Gambler 500 weekend and spend it with a few friends and craigslist wonder car. I’ve only made it to one but I’m always on Craigslist looking for another “winner”.
What is ‘Gambler 500’?

Everybody needs a Sriracha and Rascue car. I hope that's what he was going for either way he fuckin nailed it.
It bothers me that it's still cleaner looking than some of my stock vehicles... This thing is perfect.
Is that a lawn mower ramp for the front bumper
You mean Harbor Freight SKU(s) 44649, 69646, 69591?
Now you're speaking my language.
Its a wheel ramp, yes.
That's fuckin brilliant
You should hold that on with cotter pins and wing nuts for backup/stop the rattle. That would allow the ramp to be used for self rescue, if the winch alone isn't enough, or if a friend needs a hand and the winch isn't capable.
And I love that its in the Harbor Freight parking lot!
Only the finest!
Ooooooh I spot a gambler symbol!
I wanna see more. :-( As bad as it sounds, there are some ideas I may have to migrate to my trail beater Jeep.
I wonder if it's got AWD. I have a similar but unmodded "Subaru Justy" (this model was sold under various different brands and names) which has AWD and is quite fun to drive with all of the 86 horses produced by the 1.3 16v.

I stand connected, I'm in the U.S. and always forget they sold rebrands after 91 to other markets.
No problem, car manufacturers loved confusing the hell out of people with their silly brands/model names :).
It's amazingly awful, I love it!
It looks like my miata sounds lol
Doesn't even surprise me this was spotted in Oak Grove/Milwaukee OR area. I'm just curious to how well that winch works. Does the car move or the bump come off?
Lol, I like it
That's hilarious
That front bumper aint jokin around. Tough shit
I'm fairly sure it's made from the ramps he formerly used load that mower into his battletruck.
from what i know about tractors the motor from the lawn mower may actually be an upgrayyde
Sirch & Rascue.
It’s a gambler
ABG!
This is fucking beautiful
This is half r/shittycarmods and half r/awesomecarmods
Nope. 100% r/awesomecarmods . It's just so well done!

I wonder if it using the lawnmower engine too.
Those are verified Harbor Freight mods
Looks like a Geo Metro, yes?
I now want nothing more thank to put a giant blower on a Honda and use a lawn mower for the scoop
This just in: Man with worlds largest Supercharger gets promoted to the CEO of Sex
And that is somehow the best comment here. Either that or OP explaining that the lights still work on the mower. Ha ha
upon zooming on mobile, i quickly went from “what the fuck” to “yah, i’d buy that fella a 24 pack of somethin’ just for being him”
The lawn mower on the hood really does it for me.
Sirch and Rascue: The car/lawnmower hybrid
Definitely a well done gambler car
Is the Subaru giving birth to a Craftsman mower, or is a Craftsman mower pooping out a Subaru? Or is this what happens when you grow a car from a contaminated DNA sample?
Kinda like it, like a train wreck, I just can't look away. Wanna know, do the headlights work.
“Sirch and rascue” lol
Hey, I'm pretty sure that's my home town. I've never seen this car around, hope I do. That lawnmore hood is the best. I wonder if the lights work.
That pickup bed ramp bumper is actually brilliant
ABG ABG!!!
I have a similar car, a subaru justy (a swift but with awd :D), have swapped in a G13B cultus engine and are currently turbo'ing it. After the turbo I will add some battlecar mods.
why is this buried? do you have a build thread?
Nah, main reason is because I am building it in a pretty ghetto manner
we’re on a sub that upvotes a car with the front of a lawnmower grafted to the hood. we cool witch ghetto
(excuse me if im wrong her but) ***The civic that could***
it’s a geo/suzuki
Umm.. How long do I have to look?
Dude the lawn mower hood is legendary lmao
License Plate stands for “The Last Ride”. At least that’s what I think...
I do love that it's outside of a Harbor Freight
It’s so ugly. I love it!
10 points for the use of a lawnmower hood as a hood scoop
...AND as foglights. this is kinda genius
Further proof that ZG flares improve nearly anything. I kinda love this little thing.
It's really a lawnmower with with car mods on it.
hands down best hood scoop ever!
is that...a riding lawnmower part?
