Like Father Like Son
Well, .............
I,m about to start a new build, its a "7" Style car  Whilst looking for bargains on "fleabay" in the kit car section I stumbled upon a car with a "BIN" price of just £15.......couldn,t resist such a bargain....... It has arrived at home today, Its a full template kit to make a "7" style car for my 3yr old son, it has very good instructions & even comes with a CD instruction manual, basically the car is made from MDF & a laundry basket & a Kitchen swing bin, & is powered by a cordless drill, Swmbo has told me to get it made before the school summer holidays  Just not sure if it needs an IVA..... I,ll post up some piccies once I start the build, the 2 cars ( mine & sons ) parked side by side will look great in a photo. I must be daft starting another build before my own car is finished LOL. cheers andy

I don,t know how to do linkys but its a great bit of kit,
The laundry basket is cut up to make the front & rear cycle wings, the swing bin is used to make the bonnet & nosecone area & the rear tub (uses the lid to make the boot lid) Guess who,s just realised i,m going to lose my cordless drill  Oh well.....an ideal prezzie for fathers day next month  I,ll post some piccies once i start the build. cheers andy

They look great,
Only problem is my two are a little big and if I started to modify, well it would just never end. Cheers David, was distracted by looking at big Army trucks for sale.

Nice one Andy
What a great find Andy.
Personaly, I would go with a Bosch 800w motor in that If that lad of yours is as mad as you on the bikes .... I would put a roll bar on too  You can get a brand new, 50cc mini moto engine for about £50 .... Now that would be hairy  Enjoy the build mate & once Junior can type, I expect him to join the forum
