micrat Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Sheikh Hamad Bin Hamdan Al-Nahyan, also known as the 'Rainbow Sheikh', due to the fact that he once bought a fleet of Mercedes every colour of the rainbow as a wedding present. Decided that he would like to celebrate the desert, by building a very special caravan.On this occasion the Rainbow Sheik chose to honor the pioneers of the oil boom - and show his passion for classic dune-bashing four wheel drives - by building the most incredible replica of a 1950s Dodge Power Wagon, only eight times the size of the real thing.Built over a period of months, the scale of the construction was limited only by the size of the wheels that the Sheik could get, which apparently were used on a machine for transporting oil rigs.The truck is built around a metal frame more reminiscent of static plant, rather than anything mobile. This is emphasized by a flight of stairs leading up to the 'front door. The Truck houses just about everything needed for comfortable living, including four large, air conditioned bedrooms (The air-con units are visible behind the false radiator grille) as well as a living room,bathrooms and even a patio in the pick-up bed.link to video (its not a youtube so cant embed)http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=d8f_1332379003I don't know what else to add really, it has 2 floors, a house which is better decorated than mine, drives, and is...amazing!hes doing a jeep, too...
