This could have the power to change the automotive world as we know it. The invisible truck could have monumental implications for the military, for jilted ex-wives and husbands, for stealthy backwoods partying outside Lynchburg, Virginia. What was once a perfectly ordinary 1984 Chevrolet (Fleetside, short-bed) with a scant 74,000 miles on its hidden-from-view odometer has been transformed by a cadre of our nation's brightest materials science engineers to remain perfectly unseen by the ordinary eye. Every surface and part has been coated with some sort of invisibility-inducing substance: its 305ci V8, its 4WD drivetrain, its clean windows, its "like new" interior, its stack of Don Henley cassettes strewn across the bench seats. What a marvel of modern science!

The cynical among you may deride this as simply a stack of tires, standing upright. To them, I ask: how could anyone stand four tires upright so perfectly?

Ever try it? It's hard. They have a tendency to roll away, flop over, gain terrifying psychic powers, etc.

No, this highly valuable experimental prototype can be yours for just $1800. (Or best offer.) A pittance for an invention that could revolutionize the way we get around. Hurry, before the Big Three suppresses it like they did the 200mpg carburetor!
