The Wooden Citroen is More Bad than Rad
Robyn Currie — January 6, 2010 — Autos
I don’t really think that cars made out of wood are a good idea. I mean, there is just so much room for something to go terribly, terribly wrong. But, the wooden Citroen may be as close to a good idea as it gets.
Mad-man Dutch creator Joost Conijn created his wooden Citroen and put a bad ass (bad idea?) steam engine in it. Which means that the wooden car has a working fire inside it. Anyway, he then set out across Eastern Europe, documenting the often neglected area in video form, in the car.
