To build our art car we decided to use a recycled, crashed, fully electric Nissan Leaf as the base car. We have striped apart the car, leaving the interior half, motor, battery system, and other elements necessary to leave the art car operational and high voltage safe and secure to drive on the Playa. The "sculpture" have been elevated and braced six feet over the platform with vertical supports enough to stabilize the piece during its ride and to possible high winds/storms at the Playa.

We have 3 low-pressure steady flames (one in each antenna and a third one in the sting) fueled by propane tanks placed inside the platform.
