Messala is a full-scale wooden sculpture crafted by Spanish sculptor and artist Antonio Ballester in his Vistabella-based Patio Factory. The piece resembles a car in form but was never intended to function as one. It debuted in 2002 at the Verónicas Gallery in Murcia during the exhibition Cuando el cielo es el techo ("When the Sky is the Ceiling") and appeared again in 2004 in One Car Show at the same venue.

Ballester later donated the sculpture to the Ceutí City Council. However, its current whereabouts remain unknown.
