I found the picture amazing and bit on watching the video that was posted.

There are lots of other video's about it, I wasn't a big fan of this one's song. Lyrics were good, the chorus could use some work. (It caused a slight flashback to "Badger Badger" days. )

I'm impressed that this thing is from 1978, I would have thought it was newer engineering. But NASA's Crawler-Transporter still remains the largest self-powered land vehicle in the world, and it was from 1965. I guess pocket protector based engineering still rules.
