Re: Thought I had seen it all

WOW!!! Sarg, you are the man! You made me laugh me ass off! Some of this stuff is really scary! If anyone gets a chance to go to the Grand Nat'l Roadster Show, look at some of the rat rods inside. A lot of those things I would never climb in even if I did have a tetanus shot!

Re: Thought I had seen it all

it looks like a wood burning gasifier. What they do is burn wood and use the heat and smoke some how to make a flammable gas. I saw it on Discovery channel, not the truck just another working model.

Thats what it is. About 30 years ago a guy in my home town used to drive around with one of those contraptions in his pickup bed it had a wood fire buring all the time he drove it.

Re: Thought I had seen it all

Hey Nick, are you sure it's called a wood burning gasifier? I'm going to the mall this weekend to sit on Santa's lap. I think that's what I want for Christmas this year. I just don't want to be pushed off the fat bastid's lap, asking for something that doesn't exist.

Yup, that's what it's called.

Hey, you should put it in your Toyota.

Looks like a portable meth lab to me.
If the cops are on to you, you just put it in drive and move your operation.

Love it...............

Re: Thought I had seen it all

Can't believe I missed this thread the first go round...

Reminds me of the yahoos that came into autozone to fix cars... SCARY.

I dont have a problem whith them working on engines.... but when it gets down to brakes and suspension... that is when I wish they would just walk away... If you can't get it going nobody gets hurt, if you can't get it stopped... well theres a problem.
