A massive Publix shopping cart was spotted driving through the streets of Viera on Wednesday and Thursday, promoting the grocery chain's newest store opening in Brevard County. The oversized buggy, built by Total Precision Fabworx, a Clearwater-based company, caused a stir among residents who did a double take as it drove through neighborhoods.
According to Mike Dunlap, owner of Total Precision Fabworx, the cart took three months to build in a two-car garage, stretching every square inch of space available. Measuring approximately 14 feet long and 7.5 feet wide, the cart is estimated to weigh around 2,000 pounds. Although it has not been officially weighed, Dunlap believes it to be around that weight.
The cart started as a Volkswagen Sand Rail, a vehicle stripped down to its bare essentials. It consists of a tube frame, engine, transmission, front and rear suspension, wheels, and tires, brakes, seats, and steering.
