Look at the time ... a brief history of hemp and cars



There's no shortage of pro-hemp advocates in the car world, and right now is the perfect time to mark their influence on the way automakers build cars and how some people power them. Of course, weed and hemp are not the same thing, but this is the best we can do to mark the occasion. Here are the hemp+car stories we've had on AutoblogGreen over the past year. Enjoy.
I've included the videos of the Mercedes HempCar and Ford's Hemp car after the break. Feel free to add your own related stories (car stories, car stories) in the comments.
