1949 Cadillac Covered With Pennies

This 1949 Cadillac is completely covered with 38,295 pennies! They were affixed one by one using Silicone. They added over 200 pounds to the vehicle’s weight. The entire project took 6 weeks. The pennies are American, and include an 1817 “Big Cent”, two Error Pennies, and four 1943 Steel pennies; (but who’s counting?). And…it won’t scratch.

  1. Very beautiful…

    There is a place in Sandia NM named Tinkertown. A man named Ross Ward
    built it over a period of years, using scrap materials. The man was a genius.
    At some point he developed Alzheimers, and towards the end of his life
    he covered his old jeep this way, and turned it into a Lincoln. I have been
    visited Tinkertown twice, and would like to return someday. Inside is a sign
    he made that says “I did all of this while you were watching TV.”

  3. Now that is something way past beautiful. I would like to enquire from someone who can help me find a 1:24 scale model of a 1949 cadillac. My father owned one many moons ago, I drive a 2009 model.
