Lots more unusual.unique vehicles here: www.mythaihomestead.com/unique-thai-vehicles/
Have a look.
Super cool. Thanks
Link dead :(
@@shiroshine7227 just another scam site
I love the oil drum design. It gives them this 1930's vintage racer look to them. So cool!
the 30's Car were made this small because of the Gas Crisis .. like humm right now its 1.50/ L this summer it might be 2$/L
I am currently building a Go kart. THIS IS A GREAT IDEA. I'm going to try it.
That is one of the coolest things i have ever seen.Simple but amazing
The levels of design and pure craftsmanship are awesome. This guy should be building Formula One cars.
THAT CARVED WOOD STEERING WHEEL IS A WORK OF ART!
The whole bloody thing is a work of art! Exquisite workmanship and attention to detail. 👍👍👍
a few years ago I hired a taxi , a 1953 Chev.in Cuba. I could see the road through the floor and the steering wheel was a work of art. The original had broken so a new one was fashioned out of wood, just like on the Barrel cars. Another taxi had a Diesel boat motor in it, a 1954 Ford. You make do with what you can get.
Lol!! What in the world makes you assume that it's hand-carved?? 🤣 It's a boat steering wheel. You can buy them on Amazon.
@@deathwrenchcustom It's for a car. It's made by a company called 'Grant'. It's actually hard plastic, but there are actual wood ones made by 'Raptor'.
just proves... a gear head can be found anywhere! way cool.
That beautiful wood steering wheel is something else.
That’s exactly what I noticed. ✌️
Those vehicles are fantastic! The barrel is the best for aerodynamics, and the bucket in front is safety crash zone.
The bucket in the front like punches a hole in the air because it's flat so as far as they were Dynamics work that's still a good thing
Kind of reminds me of the race cars they used to build out of WW2 aircraft drop tanks here in the US.
they made canoes out of them over here .
Go carts wrapped with a barrel. Pretty cool.
You're absolutely right - those are freaking cool!!! Thanks for posting.
Oh wow, can sing along "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang our four fended friend" while driving this through the farm! Cool oil drum cars!
Wow these oil drum cars are so cool! Thanks for the upload!
Thanks for posting this! Got to be fun.
Those are crazy and cool. I kind of want one just because it is so unusual! Kind of makes me think of the fuel pod Bonneville cars
Or the SoCal Tank.
Great little cars... very nicely done and love those steering wheels!
So very cool, thanks for showing it!
Really LIKED the oil drum cars. COOL !!!
I've always been an admirer of oil drum design, glad to see it getting more exposure..
Wow these things are really well made , love them , nice job . 👍
How cool! These are definitely Thai-style CycleKarts! Well done!
Those are so neat. I want one!
You're right. Very cool little cars
Thanks for sharing, awesome!!!
That is super cool and just what you need to putt around a neighborhood.
Love them! They remind me of home made vintage racing cars. I wanna see them race.
Agree completely, thanks for sharing! Looks near 5hp based on the cylinder size.
They look so attractive too. The maker(s) did a great job on the aesthetics.
Fitted with a battery and an electric engine they would be perfect to hop in and go for a shopping trip to the local supermarket or to get your take away. Amazing design...
i don't know but the battery would be much much heaver than the engine..
@@dunhillsupramk3 Really? How much do the petrol engine and tank weigh and how much would the electric motor and battery weigh?
@@dunhillsupramk3 You would be surprised how far you could get with a small electric motor and two car batteries ! 👍
They really are cool. Nice work👍
Awesome! Thx for this video. It made my day : )
Those are wild! I have to build one of my own.
Agree.really cool.
Creative ppl.ruel!
Grass roots creativity. Very cool
This is the most beautiful thing I've seen in a long time
THANKS ! I've just GOT to build something like this !
HI. That looks cool, frugal but stylish.
God bless.
Ultra cool .
That is creative thinking all the way
Pretty darnn cool actually. And very clever too ! 👍
Building one of these is def on my list now
They are super cool. Bigboy toy for sure. Thanks for the view. Best wishes Bob.
Toys for big boys, I like it...lol
Love it! Thanks
👍👌👏 Oh WOW, simply fantastic!
Thanks a lot for making explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
Best regards, luck and health.
You make do with what you have. These are cool. Sure beats walking.
You’re right, they’re so cool. 👍👍
M A D - that has to be the coolest thing i have seen for a while- love that!
Was very cool, too bad I didn't get any info on them, have not seen them since.
Looks like a great run around town machine !
I'm checking the Canadian import rules ...
Very Cool! Thanks for the video.
Glad I stopped for a look.
this is amazing never would of seen them if you did not post this i agree they do look cool i want one thank you for sharing i liked it
It is something new for me, wish I got there contact info.
I'm dad made my brother and I oil drum go kart 35 years ago, we had a blast, my brother still has it for his kids now.
That should spark a race trend in the west, would be a barrel of fun. 👏
Back to the basics in style!
When I was in Thailand I saw some very creative things. The Thai people are very good at creating.
I want one of those now!!!!
The workmanship, fit and finish are amazing. The guy's a genius! Does he ship to Canada?
I was thinking the same thing, then I remembered this is Canada, we would never be allowed to drive these unique rides because of our safety and all.
@@corymcgrath5652 Hi, Cory. Yep, that's the truth. I understand the next thing to be banned for safety reasons is racquetball. Hard walls, y'know?
Just dress like a Shriner. Cops won't mess with a Mason.
@@corymcgrath5652 I wonder if enough people said enough is enough...stopped buying these rediculous over prices pieces of crap and enormously high insurance rates and just started making our own vehicle's out of recycled materials like bamboo shoots and bicycles that nobody wants anymore,...lawn mowers that are thrown away as soon as they run out of gas...or need a tune up...🤔 Well what could they do if everyone stopped playing the game.
Neat. Thanks for sharing.
Slick! You could have a barrel of laughs in those 😁👍
I love this!!! Where therea's a will, there's a way - Thai-style, indeed!
Thailand - where they sell gas in big pop bottles!
Cool cars. Unbelievable. Thanks for sharing.
Another cool find in rural Thailand.
Those remind me of the cycle carts that people build!
Wow l want one of those , absolutely ingenious 👍 👍 👍
i think i just found my next project!! those are awesome!!!!!
These are so cool!
now that' the coolest thing i have seen in a long while
It sure is cool.
Just fantastic.
Closer to a model t than a go cart. Very cool.
Great way to contol the population growth!
Yes now that is ingenuity right up my street..brilliance :]
Insanely cool for sure.
Man!!! Those are awesome! Thanks…. Now I have an unbearable urge to own one of these!!
incredibly cool
So cool! So simple. I have an oil drum… and I have an engine… 🤔 Reminds me of a comic strip “ Adoons Hulle” - it was about a bunch of baboons, that had cars made out of planks and a wine barrel over the engine.
Whoa! Very cool!
Cool, love it 👍😃
Pity they aren't being sold in the USA. I'm sure it wouldn't be street legal, but it would be so much fun to drive.
@crash burn it has one wheel too many. Vehicles registered as a motorcycle are two or three wheeled.
A barrel of laughs?
perfect alt to pit bikes at race events or swap meets
It might be "legal" in a golf cart community in Florida, they put tags on golf carts, BUT no way on regular roads due to crash safety, emissions, brake and suspension requirements.
Even if you got a vintage motor and built a replica "Sears Buck Board" I don't think you'd be welcome in traffic.
@@peterdarr383 No highway but local street legal, times have changed.
sweet, i'm defiantly making one of those,
Really Cool cars !
Woow, These Look Supercool Actually, What A Creativity
I liked the carts .
Very cool the motor looks like ohv briggs twin. Like a Vanguard Briggs Stratton.
OMG I want one of those. Fantastic !!!
lol, I think we should all get one and race them.
Great. I’ll try making one
Seriously cool vehicles.
That is very cool.
So awesome, they need to export them to North America! Would love to have one.
incredible Thailand! that is one of the coolest vehicle jugaads I've ever seen ... wow!
Never know what you're going to see around here.
was that close to my favourite market there?
if yes I should maybe consider to come to Thailand and live there on the market. Seems you have enough oil drums there, and an oil drum is for sure as good as the drum of Diogenes, that good old Greek philosopher ;-)
Same area, yes...lol
lifeinthailand I knew it ;-)
lol
Me as thai, I Nerver seen this before! It's looks like old racing car! Love it!
friggin deadly, got to build one someday. awesome
Would not be that hard to build, would be hard to make it look this cool though.
Very cool,very ingenious. Similar to the drop tank racers hot rodders in the US would do in the late 40s and 50s buying surplus P51 fuel drop tanks and doing just that but with a big ass Detroit flat head 8 to make them move like a scalded cat.
Awesome! We want we must have.
So cool! We should be allowed ro drive things like this in our downtown cores.
Great idea going to push up the price of the oil drums but still a winner I think I am going to build one lol
That’s pretty cool
Beautiful cars.
I am soooooo making one!
Cool man, I wish I had one when I was 12
That is way cool! I hope you do more videos on it.
Need to find them again as I got no info from the guy.
Absolutely Bitchin'. Cool ass hell, fun as hell. It's a motorcycle for those that are a little wobbly after a night out. A great little runner for quick trips. Wish you could drive something like that on the road here in the States (legally) but I know the regulations would kill the project.
Be a nice one to cruise around the village and back roads here, looks like a lot of fun to me.
in the right state, it would be do-able. You'd be best to start with an actual car, use all its drivetrain components and firewall, then license as a modified or kit car.
@@firebird77clonefirebird89 I dont think thats the point. More a fun project you build from scratch. IMO.
I'm not sure about that. There are states where ATVs and side by sides are road legal and you can register a low power vehicle like those tiny electric cars from China as long as they are under a certain HP limit.
@@marvindebot3264 times have changed in the 3 years since I made this comment. At least in 5he city where I lived in the US. Quads. Scooters etc legal within city limits. Even a Gator is used for a coffee shop that delivers. Like the progress
How cool is that!!!
I know right...lol
Like you said, very cool.
Man, that is the perfect Island car. They would be a big hit for retirement areas around here. tfs
It sure would.
Those are cool for sure.
Very cool thanks for sharing subscribed
