A truck that runs on coffee

This isn’t much of a looker, but it should save you from those high gas prices. Although your next concern would be high coffee prices! I wonder what the neighborhood would smell like when this thing fires up. Personally, I like the idea of waking up to the smell of coffee.

The Cafe Racer is a 1975 GMC pickup that essentially burns up used coffee to create a combustible gas. The gas is filtered on its way to the engine and, Viola, a caffeine-powered truck.
