Every kid in your neighbourhood will be lining up for a ride;

G'Day Mike,
I've been marvelling over your Rat Rod Wagon
AND
their's enough room under the bonnet [hood] to fit a small engine off something like an edge trimmer.
You could run a belt drive system to a live axle with a spring loaded tensioner to keep the drive positive.
Just a wild thought.
Cheers, crowie

Hi Fozzy

Love the Rat Rod wagon, however, I have a concern about the steering tiller if the wagon, in some unforeseen incident, comes to an abrupt halt with a youngster sitting in it. Looks to me like it could do a fair bit of damage to an innocent face or chest.

Just a thought, but I do like the concept.

Cheers

G'Day Mike and a BIG CONGRATULATIONS....
Girls are okay as you can spoil them just as much as boys in the shed.
In fact you might like to pass on some advise to the proud parents; occasionally lock Mike out of the shed or you'll have so many u-beaut hand made toys, you'll have to add a spare room to for them.....lol.
Sorry Mike, experience speaking.
Cheers, crowie.....

PS - let us know if you need any ideas for girls toys.....
