Re: pedal car-stroller build (update 03/16/11)

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.

the blurred background, and the determination on your boys face!

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:

Isabella Rae Peoro was born on 04-06-11
14lbs and 20in :mrgreen:
mom had a c-section, so my progress will be slowed just a bit :shock:
should have some new pictures up soon!
 
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!
