He and Stacey discuss his long planned next project - THE SURFACE ORBITER 2. \u201cWhat\u2019s that?\u201d you\u2019re thinking? Well, it\u2019s Charley\u2019s take on the Dobbertin Surface Orbiter, which was&amp;nbsp;an&amp;nbsp;amphibious vehicle&amp;nbsp;designed and built by Rick Dobbertin in the 1990s. The DSO started out from a 1959 Heil milk tank trailer and was modified by Dobbertin over the course of 4 1\/2 years.&amp;nbsp;On February 23, 1995, the DSO became the first car to transit the&amp;nbsp;Panama Canal. Then Stacey answers some listener questions about wanting to add a winch system to a vehicle with plastic bumpers, installing an Edison Diesel Electric Kit, and when to paint, powder-coat, or get a liner. *Image from Dobbertin Performance ","author_name":"Tales of a Gearhead","author_url":"http:\/\/staceydavidpodcast.com\/","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/35165645\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/184248975"}
