Turning a Land Rover into Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

Turning a Land Rover into Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

What's sweet about this story is the couple who did this will use the car to make money for charity:

Truly scrumptious - The man who turned his Land Rover into Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

"She's watched the movie hundreds of times, seen the West End show and even has a lunchbox featuring the magical flying car. Now, thanks to her husband and four years of oil, sweat and tears, Carolyn Pointing has her own full-size Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. The 42-year-old police constable, who fell in love with the film as a three-year-old, said: "It's a dream come true."

Husband Nick, 41, a manager for Marks & Spencer, spent every spare minute building his creation using the chassis of an old Land Rover. Now the couple, from Sandown, Isle of Wight, plan to take a 12-month career break and tour the world with the car raising money for charity."
