My Crazy Uncle

Last winter my uncle built a vehicle to carry politicians in parades. He was in city government where he lives, so he ought to know what it takes. He started with a 1967 Volkswagen and a 1920s-era McCormick-Deering manure spreader. "It seemed like the perfect vehicle for a politician spreading s**t."








This is the business end. Notice the current license plate. It is street-legal in his state.




The beater is powered by this electric motor. He can operated it remotely with a key-fob controller he has.



He can set the beater speed to match the amount of BS his politician is spreading.




You don't have to look too close to see its VW provenance.
