The cars at my parents house right now, so pics are out for now but will get some sometime. As for the the starter to the driveline its prety simple, i made a pully for the starter, and theres a pully about 10" bolted to the drive wheel, the rear wheels are independent of each other There on the same shaft but have bearings in them. Only the passenger side drives. Let me know if you need any more info.

Those kids look like they are having fun!! Is the little one telling the driver - "go faster"?

Thanks for posting and nice job on the car.

AWESOME. I bet your dad is/would be proud of it. I'd say it already has the kids approval.

Hey, I found a link to the plans for the sidewalk classic. Vintage farm plans Click on Kids Page on the left, next choose M.I. Side Walk Clasic Car. The reason I didn't link up straight to the car is because there seems to be a lot of good stuff on this site.

Here is the direct link for the unadventurous. Side Walk Classic
