Driving for Green Housing

Talk about necessity being the mother of invention, Rod Boydstun creates a new real estate niche: Affordable green housing. Oh yeah, did I mention that he’s using junked cars as a main component?
Most of us have at least one mad scientist engineer in our lives. You know, the guy who can get all MacGyver with it at a drop of a hat? Stuck in the snow? No problem, he can build a tow rig out of your shoelaces, a stick of Juicy Fruit, a seat belt latch and the remains of your leftover lunch.
Rod Boydstun has taken that a few steps farther and actually created a marketable product. His drive to change the way homes are built while borrowing from the good ol’ “reduce, reuse, recycle” mantra is laudable. The quality of his homes, though, are incredible.
