That's one way to use those old spare tires rather than pay the store a disposal fee !!  ;D

If you're going to build a cab in a tire, it should at least be a racing cab.

Instead of a 'barrel of kong', is that a 'tire of pac'?  :dunno


With all the pi stuff coming out, I'm surprised nobody had tried my back-pac-man idea yet. I would have loved this in high school.

I'm waiting for flexible screens before attempting any build like that.

See now I was thinking one of those cheap Winbook tablets would be ideal for this.

Yeah, until someone drops the backpack/sits on the backpack/trips and falls wearing the backpack...

I agree, a flexible screen would be the way to go...

Um... flexible screens... "rolls up like paper" right? China and Alibaba. It's 2015, what do you think those curved panels are made of?

It isn't for me but it looks well done for what it was.

I had this idea to make a pedestal racing cab using an old Little Tikes toy box as a base.   I couldn't come up with a design that I liked though and scrapped it.

It looks like they may sell them but it's in another language
