This is something one of my neighbors has been working on this year. He just drove it down to California. Its a 1948 International flat bed, with an original engine. The home part is mostly reclaimed materials from old homes.

I commend the builder for his vision. Its definately different,. To each his own.
Not sure how that little tired out engine can pull all that weight up any long incline...or how those old drum brakes can stop that rolling sigalert?

That was my thought also Paul.. but if the engine will move it, it would be great for 'local' weekend getaways..
