The $40,000 car couch

June 4, 2008 11:31pm

The point here is ART, not furniture design.
Yes, this gorgeous, origional, 'one of a kind' piece of meticulously handbuilt metal sculpture does function as a loveseat but it's definitely no sex couch, lols.
George Barris (the 'king' of Hollywood's custom car builder's) was so excited with this piece last summer that he spent a lot of time talking with Fred and getting pics. of the wife and himself sitting on it so he could show it to Jay Leno. To those who haven't seen it in person I can assure you, the pictures don't do it justice.
Fred is a masterful metal sculpter/artist/painter and his uncompromising attention to detail is truely impressive. Current works in progress include another 'one of a kind' couch design and an amazing 12-15' (metal) dragon sculpture. BRILLIANT Fred...easily worth $100,000
