The $5 Million Learjet Limo | RIDICULOUS RIDES Ridiculous Rides 2019-01-30 | SUBSCRIBE to Barcroft Cars: goo.gl/vbKSU2A SHOWSTOPPING Learjet limo has been unveiled, featuring a fully-custom design that has transformed a former plane into a club on wheels. The one-of-a-kind vehicle, which cost more than $1 million to construct and can transport up to eight passengers, uses four 28-inch wheels attached to a wingless Learjet fuselage.

I Spent $20,000 Turning A Plane Into A Luxury RV | RIDICULOUS RIDES Ridiculous Rides 2023-11-25 | SUBSCRIBE to Barcroft Cars: goo.gl/vbKSU2A US Air Force retiree from Nashville, Michigan has dreamt of converting an airplane into an RV since he was eight years old. And now, Gino Lucci has successfully converted the derelict fuselage of a 1943 'Douglas R4D' aircraft into a fully functioning motorhome he's named 'The Fabulous Flamingo'. It was originally flown by the Navy in South America, and had been on the ground for over 30 years when Gino's son found it in poor conditions. Gino and his sons took three months just to fuse the plane with the chassis of an old delivery truck he owned. Gino told Ridiculous Rides: "The process we used to merge the two was very hillbilly scientific - it was exciting the challenge of it, every day it was just fun." It took a whole year to get the vehicle road-worthy and another two years to fine tune the detail - costing Gino $20,000 in total.instagram.com/flamingoairtruckfacebook.com/RoundEngineAeroProducers: Yasmin Walker, Ruby CooteEditor: Shane Fennelly For more amazing content, click here!Truly: youtube.com/user/barcroftmedia/featuredBeastly: youtube.com/barcroftanimals/featuredBarcroft Cars: youtube.com/user/BarcroftCars/featured

The Supercar Thats Made From Wood | RIDICULOUS RIDES Ridiculous Rides 2023-09-26 | SUBSCRIBE to Barcroft Cars: goo.gl/vbKSU2THE WORLD’S only wooden supercar, known as the "Splinter”, is a high-performance sports car that is estimated to be 90% wood. Fuelled by a lifelong desire to design and build his own car and inspired by a WWII airplane called the de Havilland Mosquito, designer and builder, Joe Harmon, from Mooresville, North Carolina, spent roughly nine years working on the Splinter with the help of his team. The Splinter began as a graduate school project at North Carolina State University and has continued since. Joe said that the goal was to use wood in the construction of the car in every possible application - wood is our only naturally renewable building material, it is biodegradable and takes a small amount of energy to produce. Also, according to Joe, wood has a better strength-to-weight ratio than steel and aluminium. Every wooden part of the Splinter is made from composite construction.

I Turned My Van Into A Boat | RIDICULOUS RIDES Ridiculous Rides 2023-09-23 | SUBSCRIBE to Barcroft Cars: goo.gl/vbKSU2CAR ENTHUSIAST John Ortlieb, from Nevada, is the proud owner of not one, but two ‘Boaterhomes’ – a spectacular half boat, half van hybrid. John inherited one from his father and purchased the second nearly ten years ago. His father’s, which stands at 36 feet-long, can travel up to 40mph on water and over 100mph on land. Only 21 of these unique vehicles exist, and John’s, built in the eighties was based on a Ford Econoline Van. The limited-edition hybrid is not just used as a boat, home and vehicle, but also as a unique party venue that you can often see cruising down the Las Vegas strip.Video Credits:Videographer / director: Jessica Sherry Producer: Frazer Randalls, Ruby Coote Editor: Ciara CecilBarcroft TV: youtube.com/user/barcroftmedia/featuredBarcroft Animals: youtube.com/barcroftanimals/featuredBarcroft Cars: youtube.com/user/BarcroftCars/featuredFor more of the amazing side of life:For the full story, visit BARCROFT.TV: http://cars.barcroft.tvLike BARCROFT CARS on Facebook: facebook.com/pages/Barcroft-Cars/588082827969567Follow @BarcroftCars on Twitter: twitter.com/BarcroftCarsCheck out more videos: youtube.com/user/BarcroftCars/videosDownload Barcroft TV on iOS: itunes.apple.com/us/app/barcroft-tv/id1287734327?mt=8Download Barcroft TV on Android: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.recipe.barcroft&hl=en
My Mini Motors Are Made Entirely From Scratch | RIDICULOUS RIDES Ridiculous Rides 2023-09-19 | SUBSCRIBE to Barcroft Cars: goo.gl/vbKSU2CLASSIC cars have been reenvisioned as miniature versions and collected in a ‘dwarf car’ museum. Ernie Adams, of Maricopa, Arizona, has been creating his incredible scaled-down replicas of full-size cars since 1965, starting with his version of a 1928 Chevy two-door sedan. The original car, known as ‘Grandpa Dwarf’, was made out of nine old refrigerators and is still running today. Since then, Ernie, now in his late-70s, has made hundreds of 11/16th scale dwarf cars, from racers to cruisers – all fully drivable and road-legal. One of the gems of his collection is his take on the 1949 Mercury two-door coupe, which he built entirely from scratch using flat sheet metal.

Antique Propeller-Car Gets Immaculate Restoration | Ridiculous Rides Ridiculous Rides 2022-09-22 | SUBSCRIBE to Barcroft Cars: goo.gl/vbKSU2THE Helicron was constructed in France in 1932 but was rediscovered in a barn in 2000, having been abandoned there by its original owner. Found in terrible condition, it’s now been restored with as many original parts plus a modern Citroen GS engine. The one-of-a-kind propeller-driven car is 14ft in length with a 4ft propeller. David, from Tennessee, told Ridiculous Rides that “some people find it frightening, other people find it fascinating. It’s a very special car to drive” and “you’ll never see another one on the road”. The car is hard to miss as it is as “loud as a small aeroplane” and “steers like a boat or a forklift”.

Rock-Bouncing Buggy Has No Limits | RIDICULOUS RIDES Ridiculous Rides 2022-09-14 | SUBSCRIBE to Barcroft Cars: goo.gl/vbKSU2HITTING extreme rocky terrain at top speed is all in a day's work for one racer and his ‘rock bouncing’ buggy that knows no limits. Jack Porter, a member of Venom Racing, helped build the Venom Rock Bouncer which is basically a roll cage on wheels powered by a hefty 550 horsepower Chevy V8 engine. Rock bouncing is an extreme form of off-roading where the aim is to traverse the most challenging terrain at the highest speed possible. Jack, of Horn Lake, Mississippi, said: “When we go out rock bouncing we’re looking for the most extreme stuff we can hit. It’s the biggest adrenaline rush you could ever have. Driving this machine is very intense. We have lots of crashes and anything can happen at any minute. But Venom was made to kick-a**.” The impressive vehicle stretches 14ft 2 inches, and weighs in at 3,600 pounds but can still reach a top speed of 110mph. It’s assisted in its extreme off-road exploits by 43-inch tyres and can withstand falls of up to 150 feet – a necessity considering the intensity of rock bouncing as a sport. Jack added: “There’s also an RPM gauge but I don’t really use it. It stays on 8,000 rpm anyway. We’re pushing to the max at all times.”For more amazing content, click here!Truly: youtube.com/user/barcroftmedia/featuredBeastly: youtube.com/barcroftanimals/featuredBarcroft Cars: youtube.com/user/BarcroftCars/featured

Military Ripsaw Doubles As Movie Star | RIDICULOUS RIDES Ridiculous Rides 2022-08-10 | SUBSCRIBE to Barcroft Cars: goo.gl/vbKSU2TWIN brothers Geoff and Mike from Waterboro, Maine started making their own small vehicles when they were just six or seven years old. They have always been into four wheel off-roading and growing up they built vehicles out of any junk they could find. Originally the brothers wanted to build vehicles just for fun but after the 9/11 tragedy their focus shifted to building vehicles that have a duty. They now design and produce military standard Ripsaws for clients. The Ripsaws are kitted out with lux interiors and advanced stereo systems to suit their client's needs. The brothers promote the ease of driving a Ripsaw and state that: “If you can drive a car you can drive a ripsaw." Their vehicles have even appeared in movies and TV shows, recently featuring in Fast and Furious 8. The brothers have said: “We’re extreme personalities and we’re twins, and we’re very competitive.

Epic Jaguar Restored After Rotting For 30 Years | RIDICULOUS RIDES Ridiculous Rides 2022-08-03 | SUBSCRIBE to Barcroft Cars: goo.gl/vbKSU2WHEN Jonathan found this Jaguar E-Type it was in very bad shape. He predicts it hadn’t been used for 30 years; not much was worth restoring but he saved the original engine and tub. He says these elements gave it the originality it needed. Other than this there isn’t a bolt on the car that he hasn’t replaced. He calls it an “analogue car in the digital age” because when you’re connected to the road you can smell the burnt fuel and the hydraulic power steering makes it feel like the car is a part of you. “It’s probably the most fantastic classic car I have ever driven." It’s perfect for cruising through town late at night and turning heads. With bright red seats, the interior is just as attention grabbing as the outside.Producers: Bethan Kapur, Kim NguyenEditor: Vanessa NascimentoFor more amazing content, click here!Truly: youtube.com/user/barcroftmedia/featuredBeastly: youtube.com/barcroftanimals/featuredBarcroft Cars: youtube.com/user/BarcroftCars/featured
