Artist creates life-sized VW Bus out of wood

Well, this is interesting. By his own account, sculptor Lee Stoetzel is “very interested in the far-reaching power of nature.” If you needed further evidence of this, it’s currently being displayed at the Mixed Greens Gallery in New York in the form of an almost-full-scale VW Transporter built out of wood and steel (but mostly wood). The craftsmanship is very impressive, and if you’ve simply gotta have it, you can put it in your…well, somewhere (Flower bed? - Ed.)… for a mere $65,000 USD. As impressed as we are by Stoetzel’s work, we’d still rather buy a perfect example of the real thing…for less. Then again, we aren’t the most cultured bunch.

Make sure you check out his sportbike made of shells, too.
