The Steaurus 2000 - Click above to watch video after the jump (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/09/09/video-homebuilt-steaurus-2000-is-a-blue-oval-the-likes-of-which/#continued)
Just a few of the specs: eight batteries, one toaster, one microwave, one DVD player, one VCR, five exterior cameras and a "secondary auxiliary defroster." Oh, and one really, really funky hat, under which exists one heck of a hair style. Those are the things you'll find in and around the Stearus 2000, the creation of a real-life Captain H.M. "Howling Mad" Murdock (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._M._Murdock) that debuted at this year's Woodward Dream Cruise (http://autoblog.com/tag/woodward+dream+cruise). (How in the heck did we miss this one?)
The name is a combination of the words "Steve," its inventor, and "Taurus (http://autoblog.com/model/taurus)," the car. Steve is from Marine City, Michigan, a town that obviously breeds one-of-a-kind folk. He has almost as many quotable lines as his car has features (one of our favorites: "I also have a hammer"), so do yourself a favor and follow the jump (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/09/09/video-homebuilt-steaurus-2000-is-a-blue-oval-the-likes-of-which/#continued) to hear about the Stearus 2000 in his own words.
