Dozens of drivers showed off their hot rods at the 2nd Cruise Night. People could drive down Sheyenne Street or park.

One such owner was Clifford Sauvageau. The 70 year old built this 2010 Jeep out of, get this, wood in six months.

Nearly all of it, the steering wheel, frame, even the tire jack is wood. The motor is from a riding lawn mower. Woody Willy, as it's called, goes 20 miles per hour.

“It came together really nice. There's a lot of stuff. After I look at it, how did I figure that out. It was quite a project, probably my masterpiece.”

The wood for the Jeep cost Sauvageau just 150 dollars.
