The Gasifier-Powered Cafe Racer: The Car of Yesteryear . . . Today!

 

Chicken John converted his 1975 pickup truck to run on coffee grounds or walnut
shells or pretty much any other trash you can burn. And not only does it run on
trash, but it's a carbon-negative vehicle. Seriously. The truck itself is
completely unmodified. Chicken just added a gasifier to it. It can run on gasoline with the flip of a
switch. Gasification isn't some new-fangled technology. In Europe during World
War II, over a million vehicles ran using wood burning gasifiers when gasoline
and diesel were unavailable. The Cafe Racer: the car of yesteryear . . .
today! How does it work? Watch the video . . . "at
