My new "Tak-Tak"

My new \"Tak-Tak\"

I don't know if a similar trailer is available or not and if it's available, I don't know what is called. Here, we say "Tak-Tak" for such a trailer. This is my new "Tak-Tak", a kind of self-powered trailer. It has everythings from transmission system to gearbox to seat. All I need now is to buy a one-cylinder diesel engine and mount it to the front frames ready for mounting. What name in English would be the best for this? See attached picture.

That looks like a useful vehicle/trailer. What type of cost is something like that? It's not as fancy looking at a Gator or Mule, but I bet it is just as useful.

Re: My new \"Tak-Tak\"

What is the price of, say, a Lombardini 1-cyl. diesel engine there? $1500? Then, Dave, if I send this to you and buy the engine & mount it there, I estimate the total cost at your door (with your engine cost) will be less than $5,000. This is hand painted home built self-powered-trailer for use in gardens. Yes, indeed fancy. My friend painted his different with another banner. My banner says "uzun ince bir yoldayim" a part of a folkloric song meaning that "I'm on the long narrow road".

You're not from around here are you nomad?

I've seen your posts and location before and can't figure out where "TR" is.

Please let us in on your location.

Thanks.
Ron

BTW, nice vehicle!

Re: My new \"Tak-Tak\"

Thanks for the compliment. However, it would be better if painted better, by a painter artist.
