This was a wagon I saw from this past weekend's parade. It was sooo AMAZING. I loved it. It had everything on it you could think of. Also if you notice the lanterns on each corner. very cool. The little one behind it is a tag along, its the chuck wagon. Very well made, made out of oak and all hand made from a guy in Tennessee. The cost for both of them were $18,000.... whew.. This one is the little one - the tag along chuck wagon    |

Wow those are really neat! I love old wagons, and he did a great job to make these look old, though obviously very new. Thanks for sharing!

Those are very beautiful and very nicely crafted. Some serious work put into them. Did they actually hitch them up to a team and pull them thru' the parade ? They would look pretty nice behind some pretty mules.

Nola, yes a guy in Tenn. makes and sells them. I'll see the guy in the Gold Rush Parade in Dahloega GA in a few weeks and I'll get the number for you. He didnt pull them thru this parade because he's still training the percheron that's going to pull them, but he hopes to have her ready by the next parade. They are very heavy and he wants to make sure the horse can pull them. I loved them and once Im too old to ride, I guess I'll switch to that!!

A team of Percherons, will look nice pulling his wagons as well  the set up does look set up for a team of two horses to pull. I hope you will have the camera handy when he does get it rolling in the next parade, it should be impressive. |
