Save the Pick Up trailer

by basurama -- 2/8/2008 14:22:52
Miami Trash Machine (thanks to Juan and Gloria Stefan for the name) is a portable Sound System installed on a pick up trailer full of construction waste found nearby the warehouse where we are working. We were desperately looking for a trailer to install our portable sound machine to conquer Miami jun spaces and we found this piece of junk just next to our house. Pick ups are turning into an endangered specie with the petrol price and its a pleasure to have found this unique example of american car species.

We were looking for the owner of the trailer to offer him a good deal, but the neighbours insisted in giving it to us for free. [Extend]
