What is this thing?

Any guesses? This came driving down our lane. Oh not to be afraid, it is a new toy that was given to Rick from a friend. This was made years ago by Rick, Frank and David Jones. The front was a loader salvaged by the Jones' and they mounted it on a truck frame and put hydraulics on it and the old truck cab. The forks will come off and a loader bucket will be put on. Very interesting "thing".

Very creative isn't it?
