In the wilds of Santa Monica, just south of Montana on a little street named Lincoln, lives this wonderful and mysterious creature. Some say its tears cure the sick, but I think those people have it confused with the Unicorn that lives on Pico. This is just a car that looks like a giant chicken. And thank God for that.

More finger lickin' goodness after the jump...

Nice photos! My husband calls this car the "cock-mobile."

 

HAHAHAH!!! This is hilarious! You should take pics of the giant Shoe Car in Burbank and see who would win in a fight!?!

 

I wonder if this guys car has ever been egged... that would be wrong on so many levels

I love that thing. I pass it all the time. The complex it parks in front of is called something like "Gallo de Cuba" (you can see it in the seventh photo).

 

I live a few buildings down from this beauty. It's seen better days; some assholes tagged it with a Sharpie a while back and it's rusting out. It's been in a couple of TV ads, sadly making fun of it instead of reveling in its utter coolness. It was made for a movie or TV show many years back and the guy that owns it now used to see an old lady driving it around and kept asking if he could buy it. She finally relented
