Drums Hit the Brakes and More
Musician and mechanic, Jordan Hill, has manufactured a drum kit from old car parts.

The drum kit consists of manual transmission parts, air cleaner lids, coolant and washer bottles, as well as many other interesting components. Read more here: Putting The Drums In Drum Brakes
