From a Vintage Car into a Repurposed Sofa

While perusing Bel & Bel’s portfolio beyond their Vespa office chair, I stumbled upon the greatest conversation piece one could own: a vintage 600 SEAT Model D car repurposed into a sofa!

The sofa is equipped with working headlights, which are perfect for ambient lighting in a room, as well as an audio player.  I simply am in love with this piece and wish they shipped to the US so I could buy it for my son’s room!

Not to waste any piece of the SEAT 600, the back of the car has been ingeniously repurposed into a CD rack, which also has a built-in audio player.

Of course, there’s a version for the iPod, using the rear of the car as a repurposed docking station.  My oh my, I will never look at auto junkyards the same again!

    Such a great blog re-vamp that I almost did not recognize you Grace! Love the retro sofa idea ~ I could see that in a restaurant.

    Miss you ~ will be in touch soon.

    Ciao bella,

    Never buy a sofa with your relatives and guests in mind. Buy it for you. See if it seduces – does it tempt you to stretch out or prompt you to sit up straight? It indicates generosity of scale, some percentage of goose down filling, and the kind of quality you can spot from across the room.

    Nice to share….

    Just cause you got the monkey off your back doesn’t mean the circus has left town.
