Here’s the proper way to outfit your ride with gaming tech.

This 1979 Buick Riviera has all the style and class you’d expect from a pimped out vehicle. But the real icing on the cake is the embedded Atari 2600. The car’s owner, Kevin, even went so far as to cram a 13-inch woodgrain television under the dashboard, which perfectly compliments the late 70s motif. (If you look carefully – there’s another nice retro touch – an 8-track player behind the steering wheel.)

Now you can play classics like Tooth Protectors and Kool-Aid Man at the same time as crashing into the car in front of you. The bonus: no pesky air bags! Sweet!
