Modded Cars: Gallery of Unique Hummers

A gallery of cool and unique Hummer cars from around the world. Probably the coolest and craziest hummer modification we have seen is this horse drawn Hummer!

Mr Jeremy, 33, spent £10,000 buying the black Hummer H2 and with the help from a team of mechanics, dismantled the vehicle and made it into an engine-less carriage.

"I came up with the idea during the global economic melt-down," he said.

"I thought these hummers are the pinnacle of consumerism and a powerful status symbol, so what will happen when they are no longer sustainable?"

The hefty 1,800lb cart made a public debut in New York Central Park, pulled by2 white horses aptly named Diesel and Duke which you can see a video of here:

15 Cool Hot Rod Cars

15 Cool Hot Rod Cars - Showcasing 15 cool hot rod cars from around the world. Hot rods are typically American cars with large engines modified for linear speed. The origin of the term 'hot rod' is unclear. One explanation is that the term is a contraction of 'hot roadster' meaning a roadster that was modified for speed. Another possible origin includes modifications to or replacement of the camshaft(s), sometimes known as a "stick" or "rod". 

A camshaft designed to produce more power is sometimes call a "hot stick" or, here, a "hot rod". Roadsters were the cars of choice because they were light. The term became commonplace in the 1930s or 1940s as the name of a car that had been "hopped up" by modifying the engine in various ways to achieve higher performance.

The term can also apply to other items that are "souped up" for a particular purpose, such as "hot-rodded amplifier".
