    Pedal cars....When you were a kid did you have a pedal car? What did it look like? Tell us about your adventures.

     I had a pedal car, but I don't think it was new.   We lived in a house with a double lot so the sidewalk/pavement seemed to stretch for what seemed like a mile for a youngster my age.

    I had one but it was not so streamline as yours cb. Mine was a different shape oval front with a radiator, like Brutish cars were in the early 50 s. I can remember leaning over the gate watching the American Cadillac driving by from the American air base near us, dreaming of having one like that.

    I can't remember exactly what mine looked like but the picture looks close to the one I had. I'm sure I must have seen a car that looks like yours when I was searching. I like your adventure. Thanks for sharing.

    I didn't have one and I don't remember any of my friends having one. It must have been the latest "must have" after I was grown.

    I thought they were a very popular toy for the children to play because they looked so much like a real car. When I used to frequent antique shops, I remember seeing a bunch of them for sale. I thought they were as popular as the Hot Wheels bikes and red wagons. (Obviously, they were not so popular since it took over a day for someone to answer this question). LOL

    Hot Wheels bikes were also after "my time". Now, red wagons, that's another thing. They were everywhere. I didn't have one though. Perhaps I had a tough childhood? lol

    I wanted one so bad. So I kept asking my mom to get me one but she said no. She said that's something only  rich people get their kids   :-\
