    Interesting stuff, big project that. Not only a showman's wagon builder but also a retired bank robber, impressive.

    Your Dad does all of that - meanwhile I have been meaning to repaint my banisters for over 10 years.

    Great Video there.Dont suppose your Dad is related to the late Fred Dibnah by any chance?reminds me a bit of him and his projects.He also liked to pull a showmans wagon behind his steam Traction Engine.Your Dad gonna need a traction Engine to pull that when its finished with how heavy its gonna be.IF HE can get it outa the shed!You balked when he mentioned Ducks so touched a nerve there.lol..

      Haha thanks Michael, I used to do a dreadful Fred Dibnah impression ..
      I think he only intends to use it round the field so the old tractor will get the job
      (if it starts) :)

    That mans put some thought into that. Will be awesome when it’s done but you won’t be able to pull that behind the van Martin 👍🏻👍🏻

    • @VanSolo-uk
      @VanSolo-uk  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Lol, I don't know if you noticed but he's had to make some train tracks underneath so it doesn't sink, I'm not sure what he'll pull it with but it'll need to be Japanese ;)

    He must have been in make up for bloody hours. I've never seen him looking so tidy. Do you still keep him in a cage outside?
