Racer pedal car

i have a old racer pedal car but i really don't like the front nose
and lot other details , so i decided to work on it!

this is the ugly nose!

this is the too long nose!

i cut around 30 centimeters!

i design the new grill , they look like model A ford

this look very different than the old ugly one

i design a cap radiator in brass

make new rear fender , because last one  have too much rust and bando

i m not specialist of upholstery so i take a old citroen "ds" seat for make my seat !

yes racer for sure and the date of the new creation!

the new rust patina give real good effect , and put the number on it

this is final work

ferrari pedal car project

this car was a original ferrari indinapolis made by "morellet guerineau"
I decided to change the design because the n was not enough for my taste authentic.
so I decided to m inspired by original model, it took me 10 days of work,
but I like the result.

i use bead roller for roll the edge

i use my pullmax for make the famous louver
that a very good machine for make this type of work

the clecko really help me for the perfect adjusting

we really see the difference with the original one
