Photo: ‘Wasp Nest Inside of a Car’

May 1, 2013 By Nadeem Muaddi

The Hog Ring - Auto Upholstery Community - Wasp Nest Car Interior

Remember our article about beautiful rat rod car interiors? This isn’t one of those cars…

A contributor to the popular social networking site Reddit recently posted the above photo with the caption: “Wasp nest inside of a car”. A quick online search and the photo checks out. It was originally published on Michigan State University‘s “Insects and Arthropods” web page.

Believe me when I say that I’d rather sit in one of those meth-contaminated car interiors than come within a block of this nightmare. I shudder just thinking about it!

    There is a solution to this one. An easy solution.

      what he said. Hazmat suits and flamethrowers are the only solution for this one. I don’t care how straight that frame is, this is one car that cannot be restored.
