Having one's car sent to the pound sits near the top of the worst-things-that-can-happen-to-me list, but perhaps the most devotional cars will find their way back to owners by becoming recycled car part products.
These products are from Mother Nature's personal, environmentally-friendly entourage. The products use the wide variety of mechanics that autos have to offer and puts them to use outside of the car industry. Infrastructure has seen improved motorways using vehicle tires and watchmakers have also stepped into the development of their intricate devices using car parts such as the speedometer. Artwork pieces from couture to sculptures have also been created through a dissection of auto interiors and exteriors.
Vehicles may be given a ton of heat for causing harm upon the environment; however, with the recent introduction of eco-friendly vehicles, auto manufacturing and recycling may become Mother Nature's most innovative friend.
