Hollywood Hot Rods pedal powered hot rod
The red roadster is the creation of Hollywood Hot Rods, California. It features custom steel bodywork in a style similar to the company's full-size "Respect Tradition" hot rod. It's also still fully child friendly - despite the addition of a replica Hemi-V8 and dropped I-beam axle.

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.
