IMES Scrap Metal Heavy Truck



Turkish bus driver Ismail Mescioglu has build his own heavy truck by discarded parts and scrap metal. This swanky street-legal truck he named 'IMES'. He managed to complete the seemingly impossible project through sheer grit - he had no prior experience, no proper plan and no idea of how he was going to pull it off. He started visiting scrap dealers and gathered as many parts as he could. He also bought an old Murat 131 car for the motor. For the body of the truck, he bought metal sheets and built the entire body of the vehicle himself. After several months of hard work, his patience finally paid off and the truck was ready. and the most impressive thing is it only cost him around $2,800.
