Pedal Car

I was tasked with the restoration of this pedal car. The brief was to create a single seat racer in the style of a 1950s racing car. I kept the nose and back end but fabricated new centre section complete with real louvres, exhaust, grill and seat. I left in bare steel with a coat of lacquer. A toy yet with a grown up appeal me thinks.

I did like this project a lot.
