what is an artcar?

Ever had one of those days. Went to work, caught in trafic. had a fender bender. Why not make your car into an artcar. What is an artcar? It is a creative use of conveyance for the enjoyment of self and others. It is rolling art. Instead of junking that car, why not recycle it into art.
