Yeah seriously. Why not just leave it on 4 wheels and rip the top off and call it a dune buggy.

2 things concern me about this, imagine how awful the steering is? And look at that tiny front brake.
oh 3 things, what is up with the propane tanks?
Did they decide it wasn't dangerous enough so they ought to strap a bomb on?

I agree! It looks like an assult vehicle for when the Hells Angels have to go to war. The guy in the back is the gunner and the propane tanks are for the flame thrower that is mounted to the front.

Now I've heard Greyhound has had to cut back on some of their expenses and amenities, but I never expected THIS!
Gotta say though that access to that Ford Windsor 351 is pretty nifty.
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

be good for small town parades, or shuttling tourists around somplace.

That's funny. Lot of work went into that thing. Street cleaners watching it like vultures waiting for something to die.

Ya know the more I look at this thing,The more it reminds me of the party boats ya see on the lake here (note the propane tank).Put a couple half naked drunk chicks in the back seat and It wouldn't be a bad ride at all.

What do you get when you cross a welding truck, an old time, eccentric biker, and pile of scrap iron.....?? I think the "guy" on the back is probably the missus. I'd say she's either a pretty good sport, or she is just as wacked out as he is. I was just wondering how that trike would make out in a tangle with a car. I think the car would lose. That looks like 4 inch channel iron in the frame. I know, he's on his way to Sturgis and he heard Janklow is back on the roads again.
