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 !
