Creating the Pedal Hot Rod was a dream of mine since my son was born five years ago. I found a great pedal car, possibly vintage, stripped it down to bare metal and completely customized it. It was so cool that the Broward County edition of the City Link newspaper featured it in their "Reader's Rides" section. It was my boy's favorite toy until he got too big for it; now it sits in the garage waiting for the day HIS son gets to drive it (or until I get ambitious and strip, paint and customize it all over again). I detailed the whole customization process at: Dashiell's First Wheels
