This is a little design I came up with about 8 yrs ago and then about 1yr ago I decided just to do it. The little project came out better than I ever expected!!!!!!!!!!!! This is basically a lawn mower.

It looks real ,very cool.Did you make the body,looks like a real T tub.Without a person in it one could swear it was fullsize.
 
Yes, everything was done by hand. The little flat head engine cover that covers the briggs and stratton engine. All the way to the rusted floors and it even has a mini inspection sticker!! LOL

You can see the little briggs engine under it. It will run 40mph on a good flat surface, but it drags on everything!!!

Not a good pic of the rusted floors, but you can see a little of the detail.

Now that is down right cool, going to participate in a few parades in the future? I can see where that could be a lot of fun. Excellent job.:)
 
Totally AWESOME!!!!!!!!!, you should have been designing for FORD in the 1930's, and maybe they would have put 4 exhaust ports on the real flattie V8, again incredible talent.[cl
 
Thats great! You have any build pics? I'm kinda looking for something to do after my present project, and something like this might get the wife and the grand kids interested in rats. Cupcake would love the planter, and the powered versions are way cooler than the barstools. Good work..

Its a lot more fun if everyones into the same stuff--I quit painting my cars and kinda lost the wife and the kids, but they'd love this...

The lights light up at night and look really cool!!!! Both of these rides are at the Doss Heritage Museum right now. In September I get them back...

Oh man, I really wish I hadn't seen this. Now I have to build one.

How does the powertrain work - 40mph?! Is it a single-speed with centrifugal clutch like a go kart?
 
It has a right angle gear box to a chain. I use an electric pto clutch off a riding lawn mower to launch it. you can just cruise or really make the tires squeal!!!!!

I like it, I like it!! A tandem woodie.[cl I'm doing a pedal car for my grandson, have the better part of it tacked together. Maybe there should be a build thread for the "little toys".
 
My grass needs cutting, can I borrow your mower

Okay buddy!!! But your neighbors will be ****ed and your grass will have rutts in your yard!!! But I bet you will have a smile on your face???
