That my friends is the "milkwagon" very famous in the volksrod community and quite a bit of work an engineering in it.  A bit on the funky side but very cool.

Im too cheap to consider it but its probably got all of 10k wrapped up in it.

I enjoy theater, art, some ballet, all kinds of music and even listen to rap. I love architecture and the compound curves of many of the older and some new cars. But although I can appreciate the workmanship and time spent on this rat rod, it looks like crap, belongs on the salt flats or in an advertisement for custom coffins. It looks like a squashed milk carton on oversize wheels.  Jacks' ride is much nicer.
