Another strange vehicle

This little truck was at the Lanting Park where I went with students for a picnic or "bake" as they called it. I am always impressed with the engenuity of the Chinese people who seem to find use for something that is no longer wanted elsewhere.

Modern Truck?

There are quite a few of these "modern" trucks around these parts. I love them. I must get a photo of me "driving" one - one day. You can hear them coming. They have a very loud engine, and the PUT, PUT, slowly along. These are the "workhorses" and usually carry heavy loads like bricks, cements, stone etc.

They are probably almost ancient relics, and rust has eaten away much of them, but they still put in a solid work day, as they PUT, PUT around the place. You will see them anywhere - especially building sites.
