Re: 1st pedal car
Have not put them on yet. Looked like they would be a pain to remove once they were put on and I might paint the wheels first.

Re: 1st pedal car
Lookin' good Jared; love the stripping!
Been thinking about picking one of the 'blank' repop ones from Speedway. Can't wait to see what else you have in store for it.

Re: 1st pedal car
Thanks, but I wish they were real. I did it on the computer and cut it out of vinyl. Doing the rear and hood also just need to finish the design.

Re: 1st pedal car
Very cool. If I were to do it again the only thing I'd change is the bars that connect the pedals to the crank. Mine bent at the pedals.
