News Synopsis

The world's longest car has been restored to full glory and now breaks its own record. According to the Guinness World Records, a super limo called the "The American Dream" currently measures 30.54 meters.

The picture of the restored car is shared by Guinness World Records on its website and social media platforms. The car was originally made in 1986 in California’s Burbank by car customiser Jat Ohrberg, measured to be 60 feet at the time, rolled on 26 wheels and had a pair of V8 engines at the front and rear.

The car comes offers several luxuries to passengers including a waterbed, a swimming pool with a diving board, jacuzzi, bathtub, mini-golf course, and a helipad. It also has refrigerators, a telephone and several television sets. The car can fit more than 75 people. 

"The American Dream" is based on the 1976 Cadillac Eldorado limousines and can be driven from either side, Guinness World Records added. It is constructed in two sections and is hinged in the centre to make a tight turn.

The restoration cost $250,000 in shipping, materials and labour, and it took around three years to complete. But the car will not hit roads and will be a part of Dezerland Park Car Museum’s collection of unique and classic cars.
