Inspiring Craftsman!

Postby grant whipp » Mon Aug 18, 2008 3:29 am

I don't know if anyone has posted this or not (I don't spend much time over here), but a friend of mine sent this to me today, and I felt pretty confident that a good number of you would find it inspirational in one degree or another. It's just over 19 minutes long, but it was worth every minute of it, to me ... :thumbsup:

Enjoy:

see his web site. smaller things for sale...but they are still driveable. driver sits on top of cab. $10,450 for a semi cab + trailer. hauls 1500-2000lb... can't remember.

firetruck...very cool. larger scale.
street rods you ride on top of.
even a 1/2 scale custom chopper built all from steel. going for only $3000 now.

this guy could certainly built a teardrop. could use his 50's chevy truck for TV. at least for a photo!
