Libya displays Gathafi-designed car 'The Rocket'

In a week of events designed to celebrate Moamer Gathafi's 40 years in power, the Libyan leader has also announced a new role for himself -- car designer.

Two prototypes of "The Rocket" designed by the Libyan leader were displayed to the public late Monday at the end of an African Union summit in Tripoli called to seek solutions to Africa's problems.

According to a brochure handed to journalists, the "Tesco TS technical team followed to the letter the ideas of the designer, the leader (Gathafi) to produce the perfect car according to the leader's vision.
