Factory dzhipni
Writes blogger Ilya Varlamov traveler:
Today I'll show you how to make an unusual Filipino transport - buses jeepney. Initially, for the production of these unusual machines use the original US military off-road Jeep, which left here a lot after the war. Enterprising Filipinos elongated base SUV and make a bus. Soon, the original raw materials ran out, and the love of the jeepney, so called new car remained. Across the country there are hundreds of handicraft workshops where hand began to collect cars. There are large studios that produce several jeepney per month (all individual orders). Some craftsmen make dzhipni themselves. There are several factories where production put on stream. According to one of these plants, and today is our tour.
