Claude Kikunda, aged 28, an unemployed Social Sciences graduate living in Lumbashi, Congo picked up the carcass of a Toyota Mark II & turned it into a limo by hand… He grew up watching his father, a mechanic, fixing cars.

He said : Thank you for your encouragement by far and close, I am very moved, delighted. In fact, on this limo, it’s not a montage of two cars, but rather one. A lot of questions are about the chassis. If you say there is no machine in the congo to make the chassis, and well détromper you because I made it. So it’s a chassis I made custom-made in my workshop. The pictures talk about it…

Over to you our resident mechanic @introvert
Hii utaskia watu wameketi kwa gari kidogo wAmelamba lami
una akili ndogo just like your balls
he stole the idea from a kenyan…tafuta John Kimani, lecturer and designer
The front part seems a bit more raised than the rear. But it could be the camera angle.
Sasa ngoja ione watu wakiongea mbaya na hata hurubaro hawawes unda
The skill is there, many just lack encoragement, opportunity etc.
wewe unaweza?:D:D:D:D:D
Hapana… Lakini sijaongea mbaya :)
Even the sheet bending press is home made, that guy is quite innovative.
Wapi watu wa Engineering from ‘The’ University of Nairobi na wenzao from Jkuat?
Nini husumbua vijana? Kama angesomea Mechanical Engineering hata kama ni certificate level si angekuwa na garage yake kama Mekanika murefi?
Sasa hii course ya “Social sciences” ni gani hiyo alisomea?
Ni nani hujilea? Maybe he showed the skill early but did not get the chance to pursue it further. Rarely, if at all. do you get someone wanting to do badly in life.
if this car was built by a graduate from europe (same age as Claude) haungekwa na doubts. in fact ungekuwa hapa saying ohh see how europeans grads are innovative while our grads nikusumbua tu bla bla. 'We Africans are our own weakness. Instead of promoting our own we pull each other down. Look at the likes of Zuckerberg (Facebook), if he was an African do u think FB ingekuwa a success? Kuna games mingi on googleplay developed by African graduates but no one will dare download them… would rather download a game developed by a 14 year old somewhere in Switzerland.
Hiyo ikipita 40kph nawaambia wanishukishe. si kwa ubaya. ni vile tu pole haiwes saidia. mimi kitu najua gari lazma upigie hesabu. ata hiyo chassis lazma upigie hesabu ya beam under stress and compression.
Tell that crab @Fala 12 huko juu that there is a white man who endorsed the car kwa video so that he can praise it now.africans!!
The Crab Mentality is prominent with us humans. Saying “hata mimi nilifanywa hivyo” while repeating the bad things one experienced. Tunaangushana.
