I haven’t owned a running car for quite some time now, but as I’m about to move 20 miles outside of town, I’ve been thinking about how I’m going to make what will be at least a weekly commute. Well, today, Cute Overload provided my answer:

Once I am more established in my new home and have completed a couple of other projects (like the predator rehab area and the bicycle-powered washing machine), i’m going to dedicate some time trying to figure out how to build something like this. Can’t be that hard, right?

I’ll be sure to take pictures of the entire process (and probably some video footage) in case I’m successful in my adventure. That way you can learn to build your own without all of my inevitable mistakes. I might try to do one better and make it run on biodiesel. At 100 mpg, I figure i can provide a month’s worth of fuel just by making my own vegan doughnuts (then i have a reason to make doughnuts:).
