Who's Skoolie Is This

I saw this on Pinterest and it says it's from here. I'd like to see a build thread if it's here.

Not sure, might be aluminum. I could probably tell you if I knew where to find his build thread.

Spellcheck incarcerated my title spelling of Skokie. I went back in and did an advanced edit to change the title. You can see the corrected version in my initial post, but it does not correct the spelling in the index, what gives?

If that was on here it must have been quite a while.
IDK who's it is, but looks like a mess to me.

i like the different stages though, if that were done right (which image is too small for me to see if it is) it would be a sweet looking build.

That's why I want to see more in a build thread.

I find the idea of driving that in any crosswinds absolutely terrifying! Having had my old Dodge Town Wagon almost get up on two wheels out in west Texas, I can't imagine what that would be like. Even as a stationary "tiny home" I think I would want some guy wires anchoring it down.
