Zombie, 6 ft tall, being rebuilt, 3-2016

Zombie, "Bounty of the Roadside" Lucky find on

junk night in Palatine Illinois. Some assembly required.

I was coming home from a Model Engineering Meeting on the usual 1st Monday of the month, when driving down a side street, I spied couch in the distance. Driving closer, There was someone sitting on it. As I passed it turned out to be a Zombie, propped up with a can of beer in his hand.

This was too good and cool to pass up. I have sworn off junking, but for a Zombie, I decided to make an exception.

I pulled the pick up over and Mr. Zombie was quickly in the back for a nice comfy ride to his new home. (I left the couch)

The Zombie is well made, He moans and groans, the arms wave, the head rotates and torso vibrates. It is voice and motion activated, so when you come near, he springs into action. The circuit board needs repair, some switches replaced and wiring repair.

For all the stuff I can fix, I never thought I would be doing Zombie Repair.

The motorcycles, clocks, wind up Victrola, machines and cannons must be moved over, there is a Zombie moving in.
