KATH Hart's car would be enough to transport any Elvis fan to paradise.

She has converted her convertible into a mobile tribute to the king. This motor probably boasts blue suede brake shoes and a love-me fender.

We could not help but notice that Kath's car is a Renault Megane. At this time of strained Franco-American relations, this alliance of Gallic technology and US artistic merit is highly symbolic.

If only Presidents Chirac and Bush could see her Elvis auto. One trip around the block would soon soothe their suspicious minds.
