Far From Home

Posted by bookindian [www] 

This wagon has been around the neighborhood for several years and this is the first time I have posted any photos . . . most people who see it don't know where it came from and think it must be a "cowboy" car because of the horses, but we know different . . . anybody down in the Philippines lost this bus??

Enjoy

    HOLY CRAP!.. that things a bit of a ways from its route now isn't it.

    Roof seems to be in a pretty bad shape, otherwise it still looks road worthy.

        Yeah while its local brethren can be seen hauling goods weighing as much as it does up a mountain pass or 20 people in space meant for 10 plying the local city routes. Such a waste ingenious local re-engineering of the Willy's jeep.

    Jaysus, SARAO motors closed already, this is a hell of a blast from the past.

    Has anyone tried starting it up to see if it's still in working condition? I quite like the tricking out and it really should be put to good use.

      "Happiness" is fully operational - is driven for local events like a rodeo where it gets to haul cute cowgirls - girls wearing hats and cowboy gear, not moo-cow girls (joke).

    Looks like that ride has been one of the early lucky ones with all that bling.

    Lots of the newer ones around just feature reflectors and airbrushed art. Heck I shit brix everytime I see the Metal Gear Solid and Gundam art on the jeepneys here. Itasha anyone?

    Holy... this fellow looks like one of those earlier versions. You don't see that kind of design nowadays. Also, who brought it there? Is it a fellow Pinoy? Man, this thing belongs to a museum!
