WOODFORD COUNTY-- A vehicle unlike any other is making it's debut at Roanoke Motors in Woodford County.
This life size jeep is made completely out of K'NEX.
It took Illinois State University student Trent Nicholson four weeks to build.
And about 28,000 of those little pieces.
It's a hobby Nicholson has honed over the years, and it has nothing to do with his major in agriculture!
This isn't his first creation, he's made a mustang and a giraffe for the Peoria Zoo.
He's not sure what creation he'll connect, next.
