Beer Can Flattie (and others)

UPDATE: Lylito pointed out that more information about these models and their New Zealand designer, Sandy Sanderson, can be read here. Plans are available, too. Jalopnik has also did a story about Sandy that includes details of the original drawings.

Randy forwarded me these amazing models. I've got more pics of the others and will forward them as an email.

Here are some other models (again, I have more pics of these if you are interested.

These were featured on Jalopnik a few months ago, if you haven't seen the source: http://jalopnik.com/5417482/man-builds-detailed-model-cars-from-discarded-aluminum-cans Clearly the guy gets it, if he's putting the W from Waikato in the center of the tailgate. If one looks on Amazon, there are books instructing one on how to learn this folk art of tin crafting. It may be easier than real Jeeps. Time and money...
