Best Out Of Waste In Sangli: A four-wheeler made of scrap metal
Sangli - A man has built a four-wheeler using scrap metal and two-wheeler material. This car is attracting the attention of everyone on the road. This four-wheeler is an experiment with the engine of a two-wheeler and the structure of a jeep has been created. This car is made by Dattatraya Lohar from Devrashtra, Kadegaon.
Inspired by the child's desire
Everyone wants to have a four-wheeler. The son of Dattatraya Lohar from Devarashtre in Kadegaon taluka had a similar wish. He has a one-acre farm and a fabrication business, so it is impossible for him to get a new car or an old one. But the boy wanted to have a four-wheeler.
The experiment started two years ago
Dattatraya Lohar owns a fabrication business. He said that we started thinking about how to make a four-wheeler through scrap material. And we started trying to figure out how to convert a two-wheeler into a four-wheeler. For this, we slowly started collecting scrap material. After two years of tireless efforts, Dattatraya Lohar has finally built a four-wheeler by combining the contents of a two-wheeler engine wreckage, the wheels of a rickshaw, as well as other materials. This small and beautiful car is now running on the road.
Smaller than the TATA Nano
This car looks like a vintage car. The car made by Dattatraya is much smaller than the Nano car. Using his own ideas, Dattatraya Lohar has created a car that can accommodate four people. The steering wheel is on the left. The car runs on petrol and has a mileage of 40 to 45 kph in 1 litre of petrol. The car runs at a speed of 40 kmph.
