dekotora

This remarkable vehicle is a dekotora, Japanese for “decoration truck.” Pink Tentacle has more photos and links to several picture galleries.

    Note that “tora” seems to be short for “torakku.”

    If that truck was a man, it would have to be John Travolta in the late 70s (ie. Hideous, but inexplicably cool at the same time…)

    Ewww it’s a cab-over!

    It almost looks like an old garbage truck…

    this seems like either a) a carnival ride attached to a matching semi, b) a semi decorated for a christmas parade
