A Dubai resident hopes to make it to the Guinness Book of World Records for decorating a car with 33,000 UAE coins as a National Day tribute to the country.
Pakistani expatriate Tariq Javaid, who works in the automotive sector, used a 1998 Chevrolet Camaro to express his love for the country he has resided in since 1999.
He said the car took 3,000 hours to decorate and, apart from the 33,000 coins together weighing 160kg, it took 10kg of glue to complete the decoration.
Every step of its making has been documented in preparation for his Guinness bid — from the first coin that he glued onto the car on October 15, 2010, to the last piece, which was pasted a week ago in time for the big celebrations this week.
