A friend of mine makes cargo trikes (Haley Trikes our of Philly http://www.haleytrikes.com). They are pretty cool.
Yours looks like a Workman cargo trike.
Nice find.

i like yours alot more
Me too but yours can haul larger loads without the bars getting in the way. You'd be surprised just how tough these things are, mine's rated for 1/4 TON plus rider! Same site that sells mine also sells yours. I got mine from a fellow member here.

The Worksman is stronger it's a beast. :)
Stronger? Why do you need to haul more than a 1/4 ton at a time?
 
I know I was just saying when it's capable of hauling 500lbs making it stronger is really just overkill at this point. Mine is built pretty strong, front hubs have 14mm axles, thicker spokes all around, exc. Only thing I wish they would have done is add a place to mount front brakes because if the chain comes off or breaks on mine you have no brakes. (coaster brake only)

You can put a thicker chain instead of a 1/2x 1/8 put a 1/2x 3/16 chain.
Already got a heavy duty chain from a garage door opener on mine. So far I haven't had any problems with it but I'd still like a backup brake.
