Unusual trailer - WHOA

Andrew,
Could you come up with some plans for this one? I'd like my next build to be a "sphinx". :o




Artist Dan Biehl created a sculpture-on-wheels called Traveling Sphinx. The sculptural elements made over an actual vehicle were created from foam, plywood, and canvas. The piece is a female sphinx, a winged monster with the head of a woman from Egyptian lore, with clearance lights in the wings and forepaws that extend toward the trailer hitch. The sculpture traveled throughout Montana in the summer of 1995

Leaving aside the strange lumps and bumps, that's a rather attractive overall shape. Maybe because it has a three-window front, which is virtually compulsory on British trailers, though this one has the extra bay window effect by sloping the side windows back.

Cool!

Never do anything you don't want to explain to the paramedics.
