I can't add an excerpt as copying text seems disabled from my phone Not sure how the police in my town would have reacted.. wouldn't have been surprised if they tried to tow it away on edit: 
A man in Canada and local police had a good laugh after the Montreal resident fooled officers with a full-size car made entirely of snow. According to CBS affiliate WGCL-TV, Simon Laprise sculpted a life-size model of a DeLorean DMC-12 in the middle of a local snow removal zone.
The "car," made famous by the "Back to the Future" movie franchise, drew the attention of one police officer who was so fooled by Laprise's snow work he called for a second patrol car to check out the DeLorean. CBS Los Angeles writes that after the officers realized there was no car under the snow pile, Laprise was given a fake parking ticket that read, "You made our night hahahahaha  "
The 33-year-old machinist's prank was reportedly plowed clean by Montreal sanitation workers the next day but not before it gave police a funny story to tell this winter.

7. Well to tell the truth I cheated- I GOOGLED car made of snow

And found a likely image that would work. I've tried to get this link to not display the pic. You see what is written below the pic ?downsize=715
 &output-format=auto&output-quality=auto, just before that in the link is .jpg. On some image files is you delete everything after .jpg it will display- evidently this one doesn't care. Or maybe DU is ignoring everything after .jpg.
?downsize=715&output-format=auto&output-quality=auto |

13. A DeLorean runs fine if you install an after market flux capacitor.
