Mystery motor: the Douglas C47 truck

• 

What you see here is a great form of recycling. If old frying oil can be turned into petrol and household waste into toys, why not turn old aeroplanes into cars? This truck is believed to be just that. Said to have been made from a crashed Douglas C-47 in Australia, the fantastic vehicle was seen recently at a show in Victoria county and photographed by Nathan Tasca. We’d love to learn a little more about it. What happened to the plane? What was the base used for the vehicle? Who knows its background?
