Man's 'Green' Car Built from Scraps of 21 Different Vehicles




It may have been cobbled together with parts from 21 different cars, but this misshapened vehicle nicknamed the 'Womble Truck' could be Britain's most environmentally friendly car.
The unusual mode of transport can reach speeds of up to 110mph running only on chip fat and vegetable oil.


Quote from the article:

It was created by sculptor and environmentalist Buzz Knapp-Fisher, who has spent the last six years modifying the automobile into an almost carbon-free mode of transport.

The vehicle has been cobbled together from an array of car parts including some from a Sixties Morris 1000, Seventies Mini, a Ford, a Reliant Robin, an MG Midget, a Vauxhall Viva and a Volvo 740.
