building a pedal car

[Pedalcar]

Hi group ,

finally a dream comes true .i am actually making a pedalcar but

building a pedal car is planning forward even as building a big car.

This is what i found out the last couple of monts that i worked on my 37 ford peddler.

You have to ask you where to put your welding seems,where to split your parts so that they are makeble.

Do i need a frame etc.

Starting building is force yourself into trying to make things that must fit.

Just pounding metal is to easy because whatever comes out comes out with no guide to the shape or form.

Hi Pedal car. Just read your post, How about roughing out a design that pleases you then build a pencil rod frame (buck) to fit your design so that you can replicate it? I'm assuming that you haven't already.

I had a 64 Mustang pedal car when I was a kid. Wish I still did!!

Good luck, Phil
