What do you get if you cross a Polish Star 660 military truck with a Waryński KM-251 excavator?

This absurd contraption is a KS-251, which did just that, mounting the superstructure of the aforementioned excavator onto the bed of the 6×6 military truck. Honestly we have no idea why, but it looked so cool, particularly in the baby-blue pictured here.

This fantastic recreation of the KS-251 comes from Maciej Szymański, who has captured its magnificent weirdness beautifully, and engineered his model to function too. A suite of third-party CaDa electronics provide remote control drive and excavator operation, and there’s much more of Maciej’s tremendous creation to see at his ‘KS-251′ album on Flickr.
