the Libyan rebel trucks
Colonel Qaddafi's loyalist forces have yet to fully overrun the city despite the superiority of their equipment due in large part to the hundreds of similarly out-fitted armored trucks running around. When not arming trucks, these shops are also making other weapons like "henzab" spike-sided pods (similar to Caltrops) to be deployed around the streets to puncture boots and tires.
Few of the mechanics have any experience in this kind of work, but a lack of weapons means fighting in any way possible. There's even a guy using metal tools to scrape explosives out of unexploded shells
