    You be your own judge, I personally like it.

    Wow! It's sort of barn meets junk shed meets outhouse with many other innovations thrown in!!! I'm curious if the toilet seats are functional and what effect that might have on the sub woofers....

    How about those "hide-away" head lights?? And he's milkin' that aircleaner for all it worth....

    Artistic? No Creative? Yes
    He is so close....lose the wheels and tires and put some implement wheels/tires on it. Get rid of the Vortec engine and put an industrial engine in there.....even a flathead six would look more appropriate. He did what most car builders do....lose track of the theme and start mixing newer stuff in. Steering wheel would be tough on the twig and berries if you got too close. Wash tub fan shroud is neat idea.

    No, No, and a resounding Yes. I only hope that the guy has a good trailer to get from point A to B, and would pray for a lightning strike to set it afire.

    Definitely different that is for sure and not my cup of tea. What caught my eye was the thing on the back of the tractor sleeper unit, it looks like some sort of separate air conditioning unit but more for a reefer trailer then the flat top he is pulling there. Any idea guys?


    I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

    Hmmmm....it WOODEN be allowed on our roads,at all..The hideaway headlights are kool,,and it has a certain''no bull''attitude..Personally,I think it would be a right COW of a thing to drive with that wheel,,its sort of not me..and he could have used anUDDER aircleaner,too..He's definitely milked it for what it's worth...The rear end has been COMBINED with the rest rather well,and the dunny seats look too modern,,All in all,,it sorta looks,umm,rather agricultural,,,doesn't it??

    Well................ what else can you do with an old used up manure spreader?!?!? That's what it started out as and it's STILL performing that function! I'll admit they have a sense of humor.

    Yep.The body is definitely a manure spreader. Whilist I wouldn't drive it ( not a chance, never ) but I can't help from smile looking at it.. It was probably built to take to tractor shows, given it's pretty much built of farm scrap. I bet the chassis was an old farm truck.

    I wonder what its titled as? Id be a little afraid of that saw for a dashboard; one fenderbender and your legs are history.
