Can monster tires be done? and what would you think if it was done?

I was thinking no one has yet to make this into a Monster truck/car with huge car crushing tires. Would anybody want to see this happen?

These pictures were found online of other small cars turned monster.

I wouldn't do it but it I think it would be cool to see how it turns out and if they could actually give this car enough power to make this work.

Anything can be done with enough money. Would I do it? No. Would I like to see one crushing some Mustangs/Camaros/ect? Oh, hell yeah!

I've never been to close enough to one to see if they use the stock motor and just squeeze all the power possible out of it but yeah I'm sure it would be more replaced parts than original.

The motor generally is not even in the engine bay on these, it mounts down between the frame rails. You could put a chevy 350 in there if you wanted to (that is what many have, regardless of what is on top)

Anything can be done with enough time, money, and stupid.

It'd be more exciting if the car ran a few SCCA races and some autocross gigs then when it was used up it was converted. To take a new car and blow it out to stick in the air...eh not sure it would draw any crowds. I had some references of a miata done up like that...with the race cred then the conversion...you might be able to find it...
