Always wanted a hot rod but worried about the cost and where you're going to keep it? Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles might just have the answer, as it's commissioned nine of the USA's top hot rod builders to create fantastic miniature pedal powered versions.

@ stephen Rees , it is very annoying but they are spam bots not people and MSN could stop them but for some reason chooses not to. MSN need to get to grips with these because not only are they annoying , but often turn up below stories such as missing child etc and it is sick.

From tiny acorns ....
It strikes me that there is a real potential here, not in these toys but in what might spring out of this.
Take one enthusiastic recumbent cycle fan and a clever minimalist designer incorporating wind-cheating bodywork and you COULD have a peddle-powered, chain driven mini "car" (?) that might maintain 10-15 MPH, keep you dry and NOT FALL OFF !.
Not for the roads, but on cycle paths, cause who said cycles HAD to have two wheels ?.
(Only BIcycles fill that criteria.)
Peace.
