The Daily Mail, Yahoo News and HackADay report that:

A couple of car enthusiasts from Los Angeles have come up with an ingenious way to car pool by converting a classic car into a hot tub.

Phil Weicker and Duncan Forster have spent nearly six years converting a 1969 Cadillac Coupe DeVille into a hot tub on wheels.

The car's original V8 engine is used to keep the water the perfect temperature, and watertight steering systems have been installed.

The guys intend to set a land speed record. Commentators note that hills should be avoided. However, given the that hottub car doesn't have seats or seatbelts, it isn't road-legal.
