We have inspection.

What no motor! :lol: How is he going to get anywhere! All kidding aside, that is a great toy. Nothing beats getting out and racing around under your own power. But that is rare today.

Perfect.
My rule was if it didn't use muscle power my kids didn't get to have it. I wanted them tired at the end of the day.

I love that car, perfect.

Wow, brings back memories! My dad got me one of those when I turned six (and he got himself one too, but it was called a Ford Cortina :lol: )
I dream of a day when a chicken can cross the road without having his motives questioned.

I agree they are good vehicles. I'd love to have one in the shape his was then! It was a 1968 GT with headers and a weber 2 bbl carb. Ran like a scalded ape and handled very well for those days. My kettler car would also go very fast: we lived on a steep hill! :?
