Two Baths, a Toilet and a 1965 Corvette Engine Combine into Weirdest eBay Find Ever

Be honest here and admit that on more than one occasion in your life, you needed to do the big No.2 while behind the wheel of your car, most likely on a really long stretch of road where there were no toilets or bushes. At that precise moment, you probably thought it would be awesome if you were sitting on a toilet instead of a regular car seat at that precise moment, which is exactly what gave this weird '70s invention the spark of life.

The so-called "propelled bath" is an awesomely weird creation from a time long passed which has recently re-surfaced on eBay, for sale in Eschweiler (near Aachen), Germany.

It's composed of two bath tubs, a toilet, two sets of toiler paper holders and a 1965 C2 Corvette engine in the middle. Because nothing is more pleasant than pinching a loaf and listening to a big engine at the same time.

According to the eBay seller, the funky machine is a product of the groovy 1970s. It was apparently even presented at the Canadian International Auto Show, which leads us to believe that display standards were more… relaxed those days. After that, it was imported overseas and even went on to star at the Essen Motor Show in the 1980s.

The seller admits time hasn't been kind to the potty-car, which is now more than a display piece. The motor will turn, they assure us, but it needs everything its fluids to be changed, its carburetors adjusted and its spark plugs replaced. As for the porcelain bits, they're covered in 40 years of "patina" which is a nice way to say that they need to be scrubbed down.

But think of it from another perspective – for less than €4,000, this is the cheapest way to get girls to strip down to their bikinis and join you in a tub that's next to a V8 engine.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
