Here's a DIY dream. Solar-power, recycled bottles, snap'n'go toy car! Simple.

How easy to transform trash into toys.

Plastic bottles take 700 years to decompose in a landfill. And annually, America uses over 150 billion plastic water bottles.

The inventor of this solar powered plastic bottle car is an engineer from Japan, video creator Samimy. He's produced numerous great DIY videos on CD repair and phone hacks.
