Joe Harmon was a grad student at NC State when he built his concept. He apparently is showing it in New Zealand right now. Anyone remember him from 2008?

I had seen an article about this a year or so ago, super cool build and incredible to see all the ways he was able to use wood in his project.

Yeah I thought he was pretty creative in his material use. It would be interesting to see where the vehicle ends up.

Sorry to say he was never an NCWW member, but we would be honored to count him among our membership.

But it is a beautiful creation combining wood, modern composite technology, and automotive technology.
