Man stranded in desert builds motorcycle out of his broken car

Don't know if I buy it, but it's a neat story and vehicle at any rate.

Seems to me if he had enough tools to do all that, he should have been able to fix the car enough to get it to some form of civilization.

Reminds me of Gilligan's Island. The professor could make a radio out of a coconut but couldn't patch a few holes in their boat?

And after building the motorcycle, the Frenchman mistook it for an enemy vehicle & promptly surrendered to it ...

This design is as old as all of put together, probably ... lol... and easily modifiable evidently, but not likely in the middle of the desert. It does sport a unique pneumatic suspension which looks to be used in this unique vehicle.

I think BnG ought to buy one, an OLD 2CV, and make it into a BnG mobile!
