Restauration "Pierre GUY" pedal car

i  buy this pedalcar 10 days a go, for me, this pedal car  is very exeptional ,because she have a real racing shape "racer type" she have a exellent condition for more than 80 years, and she is complet, all hub caps , horn ,headlights,dashbord, and the size is around 1 meter 20!
so i buy it  , i just restore the car , but like you know , i dont touch the paint of course  !
i love the original patina, i  just remove all dents, weld some panels,  and adjust the wheels...

start by dismantling all the parts
remove all dents, and make some welds...

bad style!!

Judez pedal car restauration and patina

   yes  again a Judez pedal car model alfa romeo racer....
   i make new trim on hoode side and make new grill and new gas cap.
   all in aluminum, so i create some tools special for the gas cap end the grill.
   i use my pullmax machine for the grill.

   i restore a pedal car its cool but, new paint  brooking the feelings of age!                                                                                                  
   so i try to create a patina for give more  vintage effects

               this was the original front of the car, no bad , no good , but i prefer rebuilt all

                 the nose of the judez completly planishing , for this operation ,
                 there is no place for hammer and dolly 
                 so i cut the front drive system for working more easy

                              i make new trim and new grill with my nibbler pullmax p21

this was the simple tool, i make it with regular wood and use a good press for block it

                                          all the aluminum parts are polished
   

                   yu can see the patina , this look really like a original old paint
