How many is too many?
I remember a boarding kennel when I was a kid that used one as " The Dog Poop Express". You didn't go near that bad boy.....

Thank You.
That is too pretty to let the kids play with.
My 5 year old grand daughter has a newer one and it is beat to crap, we use it to haul fire wood, dirt etc.
Not counting all the toys she drags thru the yard with it.

I've been working on this project on and off for several months . Looking for hubcaps for it , I have come across many different forms of Radio Flyer. The largest Radio Flyer is in Spokane Washington I believe.
Nice! I have one my Grampa redid for my boys. Awesome job@

I have seen the Radio Flyer driving Cruisin the Coast, but have never been able to talk with the owner. Anybody know where it is from?

Nice job. I just started working on restoring my childhood pedal tractor and hope it turns out as nice as your wagon.

Thank you . Had to start over a couple times. Paint wasn't taking. Found hubcaps for it , an antique store in Kansas city has a set . I will repost when I get them on.
It looks phenomenal zigs!!! You have a lot to be proud of! Thanks for sharing ... even without the hubcaps ;-)
It looks good... :cheers:
Should put some ralley wheels on it... LOL!

I wish! No actually its brushed on . To cold to use spray gun out side , didn't want the red all over the garage. Had to start over a couple times ,paint wasn't taking. The hubcaps I coated with some Eastwood exhaust paint , should make it go faster.
That looks fast just sitting there! Excellent job. Do you hire out?
