Project Tot Rod

So I've been thinking about this project for awhile, and finally got started.

I am building a pedal car/wagon project to pull Norah around in. I found the startings of my project this past week at a swap meet. its a 1960's Murray V-front pedal car.







I am going to build a tube frame for it and steering assembly so that I can pull it around like a wagon. I'll pull the pedal parts out and save them for when she is bigger. It will hopefully turn out to be a cool little toy.

I did some drawing in solidworks this week to see what my frame should look like.





I also found wheels that I'm gonna try, they are off and old person's walker. Its really hard to find wheels that size that are narrow enough.
