Scooby-Doo is without a doubt everyone's favorite crime-solving dog. His goofy personality and love for snacks made him a hit with children from many different generations.
But how old is Scooby… exactly? Well, the original show, Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! series was introduced back in 1969. That's the same year they launched the Dodge Challenger, Ford Capri, Dacia 1300, Porsche 914 or Nissan Skyline GT-R. Back then, Subaru was still only making tiny cars, and Skoda was a small company.
Thus, we're quite surprised by how resilient the show has been over the years. It's hard to stay relevant in today's age, where kids are more concerned with building armies in Clash of Clans than solving mysteries.
Giving Scooby and the gang a hand in solving unnatural crimes is the Mystery Machine, which has received a thorough makeover from a car design artist.
YasidDESIGN looked at the old Ford van and thought it needed to look a bit like the monsters it was trying to catch. He jacked up the suspension and installed beefy NASCAR-style slick tires for starters. New fender flares were also needed to compensate for the increased width of the vehicle. Furthermore, the van now sports spooky headlights shaped like bat eyes and a menacing blood-sucking grille.
We've seen plenty of real-world vans converted to look like the Mystery Machine over the years. Some were based Volkswagen Type 2 while overs started off as the Ford Econoline. However, we salute Yasid and his efforts to base his creation on the Ford Transit.
The Transit has a reputation for being sporty and fun to drive. Maybe somebody needs to make a racing game where the Mystery Machine goes up against the A-Team van and the Batmobile. And throw a big-block V8 into all of the while you're at it!
