The Guinness Book of World Records has awarded the world's smallest street-legal car to a Texas man.

Austin Coulson custom built a car using several spare parts from a toy and tiny gas engine from an all-terrain mini-car. He was able to create a car similar to a 1957 Chevrolet.

Coulson's record-breaking car was measured at 25 inches high, 24.75 inches wide and and 49.75 inches long.

Reports say that the smallest car in the world can run at a maximum speed of 25 mph.
