The Book Tank
Now this is an idea I can get behind!
Raul Lemesoff converted a 1979 Ford Falcon into an awesome open-air tank bookmobile. He drives around Buenos Aires offering books to anyone who wants them. The Weapon of Mass Instruction, as Lemesoff calls it, promotes “peace through literature.” Lemesoff has already driven it to remote regions of Argentina and hopes to expand the project into other nations.
Think I could do this on a Honda Civic?

Awesome. Knowledge is indeed the mightiest weapon.
And yes, yes you could. And should. And post pics.

I have to assume they’ve been somehow waterproofed because it’s entirely too tragic otherwise (well…I guess there’s always garage parking too!).

Good point. Well, there go my dreams of a book tank road trip!
