    Started building this a couple weeks ago for my 7mth old Grandson, it's going to be a pull wagon, working lights, black with red steel wheels and a red interior. I started with nothing but a thought in my head,some cardboard,a wheel,some sheet metal,tubes and rod.

    Granted he was just sitting on a blanket instead of the seat but I think it perfect!!!

    Are you looking to adopt a 45 year old grandson? I'm kinda house broken and almost potty trained.

  10. Now you've done it!
    Look at that happy kid will ya!
     
  11. Cool ride! I'm sure he'll love it. I built a stroller out of an old pedal car for my granddaughter and she loves it. When I take her out in the garage she has to sit in it and cries when we take her out. Great stuff!

    That is so cool! Are you interested in adopting any 27 year old grandkids? :D I'm 6'2" so you may have to revise the design just a tad...

    when you get done with the stroller for the grandson follow my sig for a real race car for the 11 year old that the 2 of you can build together and start the next generation of HAMBERS
