Freaky Franken-cars go under the hammer

Does $8,000 for a Rolls-Royce sound like a bargain? How about one that's been turned into sewage vacuum?

Rolls-Royce famously maintains a database that tracks the owner and location of every car the company has ever made. We assume this is the only entry that includes the words "portable toilet."

Working with Bodie Stroud, owner of the Portosan Company, West Coast Choppers turned this Silver Shadow into a sewage disposal pump, a machine used to empty out portable toilets.

In the process, they had to weld on waste and water tanks, pumps and special waste-treating filters. The trunk wall and rear seats had to be removed to make room for the equipment.

The gold badge on the trunk lid says "El Apestoso," which basically means, "The stinker."
