I knew I shouldn't have looked in here. We're expecting in early June as well and we've been talking about strollers and stuff lately. Now I'm getting ideas... :roll: I have a trike from the 1910s in the attic, but that's for a bit later. Keep up the good work.

There's my youngest, tearing up the road in his pedal-powered roadster. He's got a leather cap and goggles to go with it, but he wasn't wearing them this time.

always wanted to build a lowered pedal car... 8) ,you need a massive faux shifter for it too :mrgreen: maybe some slicks for the rear too,oh and a wheelie bar if your gonna use the slicks

great job on the floor pans :mrgreen:
if you do go for a shifter as cool as the pacifier would be the squeeze rubber ducky would probably be best since most small kids LOVE making noise whenever they can(ask me how i know this :lol: ).
looking forward to seeing what you do next!

well..... it FINALLY stopped raining here in Nor Cal :mrgreen:
while we were out.... I did get a chance to pick up another couple of spools of wire for the ol' Lincoln :wink:
I spent the afternoon checking and re-checking ALL my welds, and finishing up getting the floor pan in place.
then, as if fate would have it, the door handle/bumper idea worked out great!
the door handle is solid stainless steel and weighs about 4 or 5 lbs :shock:

I really dig how the paint behind the welds catches on fire, and looks...... burnt :wink:

Re: pedal car-stroller build

well......... I've been pretty busy striping bicycles, and making trophies, and most importantly learning to be a dad :shock:

I have the pedal car taken down to bare metal, and ready for paint, but while I was away I did have time to trick out Izzies' jogging stroller 8)

I took the black tires off and swapped them for some new whitewalls, and threw some lines on it, in two shades of blue.... now it's ready!

just about ready to get the pedal car back on track!
see you soon!
