Phil Bisset is a 62-year-old former gravedigger with a talent for turning coffins into sportscars. His 'Holy Smoke' coffin car is made out of an actual casket that he bought on eBay, and old auto parts ranging from a 1972 VW to a beach buggy.
Phil Bisset's coffin car is the definition of creepy customization. 'Holy Smoke' is completely street legal and according to Phil Bisset, can hit 100 mph. I'm not sure I'd want to tempt fate by going 100 mph in a coffin.
