I would die to have this in my living room! I saw this on Facebook.


When NISSAN moved their USA Corporate Headquarters from Long Beach, California to Nashville, Tennessee, their Ad Agency, Chiat Day also opened an office here. These pictures were taken in their main conference room in their offices in Cummings Station.

No better way to go!

Cheap conference table, anyway ~ no big deal.

Wish we knew the VIN and could watch how they got the car in thru those windows.

Datsun Special AntiGravity Tool 001-HLS30-NoDrip
(On sale until 24Dec from Rock Auto).

And I'm sure they electro-magnatiZe the whole car to prevent rust flakes from falling into everyone's coffee.

You can see the tire tracks on the ceiling. Obviously they drove it in through the window. :lol:

I bet that's a real car minus the engine and trans (and other stuff you can't see). That would be easier then replicating one. A strong steel beam in the ceiling would hold it with no problem.

Here's another picture of it. You can see the license plate brackets. It definitely looks like a real car to me.

I am guessing it is a real car that has been gutted to reduce weight.

Here is a link to the architect....
