Not design - the "pusher car"

This is a guy thing.

Update: The Stockbridge Emission Center Pusher Car is the winner of the 2009 Henry County Fair Demolition Derby!!

We are very fortunate to have auto mechanics in the family. They don't work for free but we can whine about our cars at family gatherings. From my "man" standpoint, I love the shop, I love the smell, the practicality, the problem solving, and I particularly love the Stockbridge Emissions pusher car.

  2. I forget to mention one of the best features: no muffler!

  3. You know, there are so many blog projects out there featuring creative re-use of old materials, I think this car can hold its head up high and join the party!
