Created by famed customizer Jay Ohrberg in 1986, this extravagant vehicle boasts an astonishing 26 wheels and amenities that redefine automotive luxury. Among its over-the-top features are a swimming pool complete with a diving board, a trampoline, a giant water bed, a mini-golf course, and even a helipad built sturdy enough to support a small helicopter.
Built in two sections joined by a hinge, the limo was designed to fold in half, enabling it to navigate turns despite its staggering length. Powered originally by two 8.2-liter V8 engines, one at the front and one at the rear, The American Dream was engineered as both a statement of opulence and an engineering challenge.
Despite its status as an engineering masterpiece, practical use was almost nonexistent. Its size made it impractical for everyday travel, and it functioned mainly as a symbol of extravagance and a mobile showcase of wealth and excess. This limousine was created more to impress and to satiate the desire for flaunting status than any tangible transportation need.
After decades of neglect and decay, The American Dream was restored in recent years, requiring extensive work to bring it back to life. Today, it resides in a museum in Florida, where it continues to captivate visitors with its outrageous design and sheer audacity.
