The Indian motorbike may have to be moved.

Nice work - great thread.

Nostalgia is just fine.

OP, you're either single, or got a great OH!

[wildwilll]

Great OH, we did have another pump in the kitchen but she got upset when someone made me a good offer on it hence had to do another.

Got the lotus painted ready to build.

[Barchettaman]

Awesome skills.

I'm all in favour of leaving things original/with patina, but when the end result is that outstanding it's difficult to argue against restoration.
Bloody marvellous.

I love threads like this

This is a photo of me (no laughing!) in my pedal car taken sometime in the mid 70's, I'd to know what make the car was if any experts have a clue?
I've tried google and never managed to find another one like it
I've got no idea how old the car was, but I think it was from the 60's.



ETA: Just found the exact same one on ebay! Sadly no mention of who made it, but there are more photos
