'Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory' is set to make history with the world's first skateboard car. In this day and age there isn't much that can't be turned into a skateboard.

The skateboard car will have a [custom-built skate park](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aan-architects) to drive around in. In the video above, you can watch Dyrdek and [professional drifter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gac-group) Vaugh Gittin Jr. grind the skateboard car on a few rails. I have no idea how this hybrid creation works -- all I know is that it is awesome.
