"This freak flying machine is made of an antique manure spreader fitted with biplane wings. It was built in 1997 by painter and sculptor Lowell Davis, a former cover artist for the old truck stop favorite, Sex to Sexty magazine, and now a beloved creator of cute farm figurine collectibles. The Crapduster is reported to be his favorite piece." Text Source: (

"So you're driving down Route 66 when all of a sudden it grabs your eyes. Perched high overlooking the road is a flying contraption. It's a weird looking plane with a weird name, "The Crapduster". Turns out it's a bit of fun by artist Lowell Davis. It's an antique manure spreader to which he added wings, inserted a pilot, and painted with eye-catching colors." Text Source: (
