You will find the answers you seek on this page. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=576941&highlight=divco Brand new bodies form the factory molds are available.

If you have any vintage photos of the car I would love to have scans to add to my website. When you are ready to restore it I have plenty of restoration parts available to get it back to original.
Anybody know who might have made this. It has a cast iron steering wheel with a spark advance lever. The front tires, I believe are original. The bird hood ornament is aluminum I believe. I broke the frame as a kid and my dad came up with the plywood repair using wagon rear wheels. I have looked all my hotrodding life and never have seen one like it. It has looked like this since the 50s I did my first flame job on the other side at the age of 14-ish using model paint.
My seven month old son's Murray Comet. I'm in the process of converting it to a stroller, but making everything attach to the original holes in the body so I can convert it back to a peddle car when he gets bigger. It will end up getting a green/cream Watson style panel job on it, but my son likes ringing the bell, so it is staying a firetruck for a little longer.
ok just got done with my lil mans and took it to the road rocket rumble and he won his first trophy how cool anyways here it is enjoy
There's an outfit here in California called TotRodz that builds these things: http://totrodz.com/index2.php
Here is one a guy I worked for built. Cool as hell but not quite the flawless metal worked piece it was advertised to be. More of a nice looking "sculpture" if you will yet it was still one my favorite things done there.
I thought I already posted this but didn't see it in the thread. The boss of the house with her little sisters chop flyer. That is her chevy in the pic.
Picked this book up awhile back. You use a kids Kettle car as a base to make the white car on the cover. There is instructions to make a moon vehicle where you use parts of 5 gallon pails as wheels (front axle peddles and rear wheels steer) and the green pickup on the cover you peddle and steer the front axle.
