I would like to know more about my pedal car. It was given to my dad by a friend. The friend found it in Paragould, Arkansas. Not real sure about it. I do know that it is not in very good condition and the windshield is missing. I can't find anything else out about this little car. Any information would be appreciated.
What I've found is AMF. Possibly early 60's. One of the last in production, and there are an abundance of them out there. It would have had a little red light on the hood, as well as the windshield. Here's one of the dozens I found:
