Stormin 4,458 #5 Posted October 10, 2016 It looks like it is built round a Land Rover. The Land Rover will most likely be road legal. Just had a body built round it for the procession. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have you also noticed the rear tyres?...apart from being different, the R/H side is on the wrong way round. 1 HeadExam reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 4,458 #8 Posted October 14, 2016 Those rear wheels don't do any thing. They're not even touching the ground. Series Land Rovers lend themselves very well for carnival floats. Take the top off, fold the windscreen down and you can build all sorts things on/round them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
