Spot on mate , I'm in the middle of making one myself for my 4 year old boy , but I'm struggling on what motor to use , can you help with any info ? dantrials3@hotmail.com
Hi, I made one for my daughters some have grown up and now the new little ones want to play on it but the wooden steering wheel snapped have you seen or found a place that sells 8 inch steering wheels? mike
how long did this take to build? i'm 13 right now and am trying to build my own simple electric car like this that I can use till i'm around 16 but I have very limited money for parts and nothing that I can find in the house to even build a frame. plz reply
dude, cut into the pair of wires leading to the electric motor. then tie in a $9 4-way electric light switch from home depot. then... it reverses polarity so, one position is forward, the other is reverse.
Naaah, it uses a simple scooter motor so it only goes forward. That's why several times the video was "cut" - that was when I had to put down the camera and pick up the car and turn it around for my son after he drove into the bushes and such.
We're working on a bigger, badder version that will have reverse, "real" brakes, and be able to seat two adults or four kids.
Wow, body on frame, just like your Crown Vic! My son rides modified Power Wheels for now, but I too have lots of parts laying around from a previous life. Perhaps this winter I'll put them to as good of use as you have. Fantastic car you've built!
Hey midiguy I just want to say that as a single father of an 8 year old boy, I can tell you that I cherish every moment I spend with him. Since he was born I have built many projects for him, the most recent being a minibike I hope to post on here soon. He's even learning how to use tools and helps me sometimes. It's great to do things with and for our kids because when they get older, they'll always recall those fond childhood memories. Great kid and a great job too.
Thank you everyone for the great feedback... my son got a lot of use out of the thing for about a year, and unfortuntaely he grew like a weed so he can no longer drive it anymore. He's going to be one tall boy ;-)
Anyway, the very start of Homemade Electric Toy Car II is underway... started the pile of scrap to work with... we have tires, tubing of different sizes, wheels, a coffee can of usable bearings!
@midiguy732 what did you use im trying to make one for my litle brother im out of high skool and i need something to do than work and go 2 skool can you inbox me and tell me the parts in details
dude im 27 and i freeking want to ride the thing! aslong as it has a lke 100cc engine lol jking thatthing rules and iim not even joking i want a ride!
