known as the "Minny Sota Ferrari" and emailed around all summer, I just got it in my email, it's a great use of a lot of farm equipment tools and tractor stuff

it has a Minneapolis Moline grill, a washtub for a fan shroud, milking tubes on top of the air filter housing, horse shoes holding up the side mirrors, a cross cut blade for a dashboard, great open end wrenches for the headlight buckets which I don't recognize, a tin roof for a firewall, and what looks like a manure spreader at the back





 


I hope you've enjoyed this photographers good work at close ups of all the cool farm things put to good use on this jalopy

1923 Marmon Harrington (love their creations) the original road train, the Damascus to Bahgdad run


How this came to be is written up in an article http://www.saudiaramcoworld.com/issue/198104/the.nairn.way.htm in which the Nairn brothers found a need and filled it with a bus route between Syria and Damascus, cutting the 70 mile route in 1/3rd the time.
