Projects Pedal Car Stroller suggestions

i personally would have cut that center decal out and made it billet or something cool. Looks good though

 

that would be cool but i havent found a customer that will pay for the time to build a billet grille..

we are putting lights and custom upost...

 

here are some more we are working on

 

Dude were are you getting your rims at!?

 

Check this out.. http://willysreplacementparts.com/little_willys_body.html

 

thats bigger than 1/4 scale that body is 60" long and the sell for alot less than that $325.00

 

they are go-kart wheels and tires... i have many different ones to choose from

 

Oh i getch ya wicked i forgot you build to sell. Yeah i see where you're coming from now. Actually i called you continuously for a month a few months ago actually to buy a complete stroller from you but you never returned my phone calls or emails. it kind of worked out better that way anyways that made me start on the custom one im doing now. But you definately have some nice items.

 

Now THAT's great word of mouth advertising...

 

LOL well i didnt mean it in a disrespectful manner..but hell his shop is two hrs from me. I was going to drive down and pickup a stroller. I just never got called..lol Ahh i'm sure he's a busy man.

 

well heres the other stroller i have been working as well..

my apologizes that you didnt get a return answer from us or me Randy

did you leave a message on the shop line?????we have found out alot of people dont leave a message. im in the shop alot and cant get to the phone, and i try to call or email everyone back.. the month of may is crazy cause we have a big show..

pretty much we build when someone orders something... we do have wheels and tires most of the time...

we have just started to make the chassis 5 at a time for each one of the bodies...

if there is any thing else you might need or i can help just email me or call

randy@wickedcarts.net

by the way is your name Henry??

 

I have a question on your seat shells..what are the dimensions ? i might want to use one for the pedal car im doing. Also the cost on one of the seat shells. the ones im referring to are the ones in the pics you posted earlier in the page. Thnx in advance.

 

1938 Steelcraft Pontiac with some tweaks. I removed the grill, axles, pedal assembly, etc. I kept all parts!
Aluminum frame
Flathead piston diff.
Dropped "I-beam" bushed front end
Harbor Freight tires

 

Aluminum aircraft style seat (riveted together) with leather cover attached with Chicago screws
Aluminum riveted windshield frame with plexiglass "glass"
Removeable leather top
Aluminum riveted grill
Rear steering, which also activates the steering wheel Made from 3/8" and 1/4" rod with brass tag from old exhaust horn for hub cover.
"Shift lever" activates 1930s bicycle horn
Ebay headlamps, baby moons, and stoplamp lense.
Aluminum "engine turned" dash

I wanted it to resemble a '40s hot rod with Model A-style chassis. It has a split 'bones and a transverse spring in front and wishbone/transverse spring in the rear.

It was fun to build and my soon to be 18 month old daughter loves it!

 

Perfect IMO.. amazing job!

 

oh WICKED yup im Henry..lol

 

Pics when finished??

 

I almost bought one of thos on CL a couple of weeks ago. They are neat as hell.

 

sacrilege! should have been left stock with a coat of polish.

 

why do you say that? if it is for a girl i think pink is okay. i dont think he is doing any real harm to the value of it by painting it up and rechroming it. if it were in better shape i would agree with you but it looked pretty rough to start with.

 

Hello!

I have searched everywhere for a Ford 32 body and the only place where i can find it is at wicket carts and they don`t ship to Sweden.
Can you please help me find one 32 Ford body i really want to build a pedal car for my son

Best regards Mikael

 

Mikael, look at post #76. These are by far the best proportioned bodies I've seen.

 

I have been looking at this and it looks great and i have sent them an e-mail but i havent got an reply.
Do you know the measurement on the body i don`t want it to big.
Hope i get an answer from them and the body is the perfekt size.
Do you know anywhere else where i can get a body?

Best regards Mikael

 

It's about 48" long from the front frame horns to the rear frame horns. Measuring from the bottom of the chassis (chassis and body are molded as one) to the top of the cowl is about 12". It's a true 1/3 scale body, so if you have a deuce roadster take a measurement, divide it by 3 and that's how this thing measures.

 

By the way, the windshield is nowhere near proportional. I won't be using it, but it's like $25 extra from the Bop Top guys.

You'll need to call them, and catch them at the right time. I wouldn't bother leaving a message either. They're fantastic at making stuff, but communication skills are lacking.

 

YES! that is the one i really want, it looks GREAT!
hm, i really hope they want to send to Sweden and the shipping cost wont be so mutch.
To bad i don`t know anyone in the USA who can help me order one and ship to Sweden, anyone helpful out there

Best regards Mikael

 

ill be posting pics soon of the stroller..i did one last year for my nephew in orange..it turns alot of heads and they get compliments left and right. I could have left it original ..but then again if that was the point, i would just have used the stroller we have now. Like it says in my garage.."Friends don't let friends drive stock".

 

Hey man what did you use for a front axle? I am looking for a dropped axle look assembly and collecting parts for my effort! Does anyone know of a company opr a current pedal car that has a version of a drop axle ?
