Everyone's dying to ask this question...I'll be the first. What happens if it catches on fire? Will people just stand around or will they try to put the fire out? Could you recover the cost of the car by selling snacks? Can you burn just the glovebox door today, gearshift **** tomorrow...etc then claim it burnt up (?) to the insurance company when it's all gone? Trade in's?

Various Viper body panels have been made with hemp fibers. Industrial hemp is legal in Canada and I believe the Viper parts are made there.

I guess Cheech and Chong's hemp van from 1978 (from the Up in Smoke movie) should be considered way ahead of it's time.
