Let’s be honest, things that are upcycled to look like vintage anything are pretty cool. But I think one guy, whose pet project involved giving an old lawn mower a vintage car makeover, just might have created the raddest new-vintage item I’ve ever seen.
A car enthusiast who goes by the moniker Jeep2003 online, turned an old lawn mower into a vintage automobile and the results are wild.
He basically cobbled this machine together using parts from a bunch of vehicles — a snow-blower and a worn out smoker grill among them — and Dr. Frankensteined a b*****n’ lawn mower.
He named his creation ‘L’il Scalper’.
He documented the entire process on a forum for old vehicle restoration enthusiasts and updated it regularly with his progress.
Apparently, he’s not the first person to do this.
Mark Moriarty, who is regarded as a legend among the restoration set, created his own vintage car lawn mower and dubbed it the “Atomic Yard Master.”
Don’t these mowers actually make the prospect of mowing your lawn a little less tedious?
I know I’d feel like a badass parading this puppy across my lawn.
