      Hi Don,

      If you're into restoring old pedal cars I've found that Speedway Motors has just about anything and everything including decals.

      Hey, I have a Flat Face just like yours and i want to customize it with tail lights and headlights. May i ask where you found the taillights, taillights, and wheels?
    8. shawimm shawimm, 11 years ago
      The tail lights are a motor cycle licence plate accessory that I found on ebay. I drilled holes where the original embossed tail lights were and welded in a piece of steel tubing with a washer tacked on the inside to bolt them in. The headlights were adapted from a pair of disposable flash lights. The wheels were ordered at the local hardware store and were lawn mower replacements. 8x1 3/4 inch on the rear and 7's x 1 1/2 on the front. Hope this helps...and thanks for the interest

      Hi ,

      I absolutely love this build. I currently starting a dipside and would love to know more about the wheels you fitted .

      How did you fit them as my drive wheels have 2 flats on so I'm not sure how it would work?

      Any information you have would be great.

      Thanks

      Kieran
