Picture the scene: you’re driving along a US highway when you look to your right and see a 1956 Cessna airplane driving alongside beside you.
While this may sound like a dream, it was the reality for this motorist.
The 1956 Cessna 310 was initially converted into a race car that took part in the 24 Hours of Lemons, not to be confused with the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Dubbed ‘The Spirit of LeMons’, the one-off vehicle is a real attention grabber on the road.
