Little Red Car for my Kids
 

Here's a little Red Car I built for my kids, I't runs off of 12V starter gererator. The kids love it just like i did when i was a kid my dad built one for me his was built out of 1/2 plywood, the new updated on is all steel, and will do some damage to what evere it hits.... lol

ps the last pic was the one my dad built

Too COOL!

Great job on the fab, how long will it go on a charge?

Welp, you looked purdee Dapper back then.

Nice car, too.

Very nice, I'd love to see a pic of the drivetrain.

I think the coolest part is that you still have the picture of yourself with the original, Derek.
Very nice & welcome to SFT. :)

could you please post pics of the starter hooked to the driveline

Great job there Derek. Unless I miss my guess, the original that your Dad built is Popular Mechanic's "Sidewalk Classic" from a 1960's issue. Am I right? Anyway, making one out of metal with such a faithful reproduction, is a pretty nifty feat.

Yes so true, I dont have the original mag, but had copies of it that my dad had made. Should last for a long time. Mine lasted for several years, and I hope this one will be around when im sitting in my rocker... lol

Thanks for the comments
