Not sure if this goes here or in the Darwin thread?

I doubt you'd have done this back in the day Bill, too many brain cells telling you 'just say no'.

Below:

With everyone so preoccupied with taking pictures for posting, who's watching the road?


I guess queen will take care of herself.


I wonder if tetanus is required for those sharp edges?

 

I like it that the tow chain is ready to go.

 

I think that's for decoration only Don, they leave 'em a month in the ocean to get the right patina.

 

Mr. ND, aren't you planning a trip? This would allow you to take turns sleeping and no senseless motel bills.

It is listed on craigslist in Oceanside for $11,900

 

At 6'4", Bill will have trouble. Is that a Volvo?


Old woodworkers never die...

 

It was, but it looks to be built on an A frame, so I think it is registered as a Volva now?

I don't know who is more "interesting" the person who built it, or the one who ends up buying it.

No license plate illumination will get either owner cited.

I wonder how waterproof it is when driving it in the rain, not-to-mention the weight rating on the rear tires and suspension.

I'd bet it doesn't handle well in a cross-wind, either!

Unique, but impracticable.

Just the ticket for Burning Man or Rainbow Gathering, though......

If only they'd have used a Citroen wagon. Much more practical and room for a shrub.

 

 

What's not to like, it's a Ford. Could be handy in TX this week.

 

Sniper tower?

Hopefully just a guy with a bullhorn.

 

Ah yes, a Citroen ID19 wagon with air/oil suspension.

Move the lever on the left kick panel to adjust the suspension all the way down, all the way up (useful when changing a tire) or somewhere in between.

Did you know you could remove a right or left rear wheel then drive on 3? Car sits as level as Kansas while whizzing down the road.

I did this once, burrowed my dad's ID19 wagon (it also works on 4 door sedans and DS21 & Pallas), removed the right rear wheel, then drove into a garage that I did business with.

"My right rear wheel came off...what can I do!?" Then when a crowd gathered, I sped oughta there laughing my azz off.
