Life-sized TMNT Turtle Van is hotter than an oven-fresh pizza
by Robert Oden on 02/24/2010 3 comments

If somehow fortune ever sets fit to smile upon me in a way that I become a rich man, I won't stay that way for long. Why?  Well shortly after buying this house, I'm going to the Volo Auto Museum in Chigago and throwing money at the owner until I can leave with this life-sized recreation of the classic TMNT Turtle Van.

I've dreamed of owning a van like this since I was about 4 years old and to know that it actually exists now, gives me the special tingle that can only come from nerd longing. Seriously, look at the detail! It even has the "Foot Stinks" decal on the side! I would do dirty, disgusting, shameful things just to spend ONE afternoon riding around in this thing. I can see me now, wearing a purple bandanna and scarfing down slices peanut butter and jelly pizza while jamming out to "Ninja Rap" on a loop. 

Anyway, you can check out more of this radical vehicle in the gallery below. And yes, that fiberglass "Ninja Turtle" standing next to the van is more terrifying than a thousand ghouls.
