    Can anyone help me identify this pedal car? I think it may be a Gendron Skippy from the late '30s or early '40s. It has been in a garage for many years and is in very good shape. Any info will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

      The hood does open. I also think the original color may have been blue.

      Thank you! I am currently just looking for the ID and appx value. Debating whether to restore, keep as is, or sell..
    6. alexg alexg, 9 years ago
      they are very nice restored but a car like this has to be professionally restored and those jobs are costly...i pay 700 to just get sandblasted and painted plus parts which u might find on speedway motors..value really depends on what some1 will pay cuz ive seen sum in perfect condition restored sell for 800-1500 and original about the same just varies on how well restored...would be worth a little more if was in better ORIGINAL condition

      Thanks for the great info alexg. I believe all parts are original. The pedals work great and the hood opens smoothly. The only thing I am not positive about is the paint color.

      paint color looks original to me but missing the graphics on it
