Luke 12:55 - And when ye see the south wind blow, ye say, There will be heat; and it cometh to pass......Well boys, this Southwind be blowin' but there aint going to be no heat, and despite the 440 it aint going to pass you either!
At first glance, this street submission Frankenhooptie from Sand Point looks to be the product of a freeway pileup. Closer inspection reveals a finely melded combination of a 1969 Dodge D-300 and a 1974 Fleetwood Southwind (Dodge). The kicker is that the "cab" is actually the front of Fleetwood Southwind FLIPPED the hell over. Only in Sand Point could you get away with such blatant disregard for standard motor vehicle safety Yet, the functionality of this hooptie is not really arguable.
The white bucket, as any fisherman knows, is the trash can. The blue bucket is of course the drivers seat. Passengers, tools, or passengers that are tools can sit on the starboard shelf. Like for instance the rivet gun that did the aviation-like riveting of the cab to the dash. Vintage conventional meets unorthodox modern. Its a match made in heaven and is, to date, the most spectacular hooptie recognized. Likely spawned on mushroom enhanced trip to the dump. Sand Point is a mere purgatory to the one-way trip that is the Sand Point dump. But this Fleetwood Southwind came back, hacked, ripped, sawzalled, flipped, and recycled haute couture using a rivet gun instead of sewing machine.
"Cop took my wallet, looked at my license
His partner said "Damn, they all look like Tyson"
Yes, I'm legit, so they gotta let me go
This bucket ain't rollin' in snow.." 1989, My Hooptie, Sir Mix-a-Lot
