edit: You made me interested to look what other ones were on ebay and i found this, not very useful, but kinda cool. You should get it to and make it to match, lol.

Yes I stripped all the paint off of the metal and wooden pieces for that reason.

I don't even know but I'd guess 25-30 probably....actually probably double that. Took about 8 hours just to fnal sand everything and a full day to tape and paint

Got word that this little gem should be in the next issue of Drive In Magazine. It's a retro/pinup magazine that started up about a year ago.

AWESOME! Just goes to show what can you can do when there is no work in the shop.:lol: I would love it even more if it had cup holders, you know for OJ and Chocolate Formula. A kid can get really thirsty pushing that rig around.

Ha...actually the shop is slammed with work...3 month waiting period to even get in the door right now. This thing took me almost 5 months sneaking in a few late night hours whenever I could. I'm hoping it helps me branch off into more custom antiques.

I never thought I'd say this, but I think I found a stroller that's pretty close to that level of awesomeness. Perhaps this can be when he's 2
