What a great find, that thing is wild!
Thanks! I am baffled that people would throw this away. Maybe they knew I would come and collect the loot :p

That car is so cool. Who doesn't want a Soviet era pedal car?
I'm picturing a little Brezhnev Jr. in a dark suit, pedaling around
the compound. Demanding to see my papers. Fun! :p

Yes but you’d have to paint it black. All old Russian limousines are black.
I am not going all soviet on this one ;)

I'll try and fix it first then start measuring and gathering parts.
This could be a bicycle trailer too. With an detachable arm, the car would follow the bike along.

It does need softer tires though. The current (also very cool) wheels have a compound of tires that is in between rubber/plastic... therefore very noisy on the road.
The body doesn't help either, its one big sound box.

If you have been following me and this thread, you'll probably know I like options.

I would like a:
  • Vehicle (Gasser, Lowrider) that is also a:
  • Bicycle trailer for hauling (stuff, the kids, an engine) that can also be utilized as a:
  • Engine powered car (Electric, Gasoline or little diesel)
Gas powered pedal car which can be pulled like a bicycle trailer to a nearby track for some racing :43:

I could build this as a RC car...... :shake:
