Default Pics of my son's HotRod





Santa came early for my 2 year old. Only problem is this won't be much of an everyday toy but rather a family pass me down.

It was a radio flyer ride on toy that we bought him about a year ago. Sat out in the weather and sun and became really faded so I decided to take it down to Coupland Signs (www.couplandsigns.com) in La Porte, TX do be flamed up. Its made of metal so it will hold up very well for years to come. I probally paid more for the job then I should have (at least wifes thinks so) but theres a price to pay for something to pass from child to child, and hopefully it will build an interest in cars as he grows.

What does it run? Well it runs completely off of terrible two foot power...which has been known to give the best of us a run for our money.

NAWS? No, unfortunetly when this method of power enhancement was tried it dropped the original power output drastically. Allthough... sugar does seem to be a most excellent substance for a quick boost.

Glad everyone likes it.

That is sweet. You gotta start them off young. Just tell him to obey all traffic laws.

Hes wearing the "lets try not to scratch the new paint" suite.

When my wife and I went to get some christmas gifts for him she kept complaining cause she said I was picking out the toys that I wanted to play with. Right now Grave Digger and monster trucks seems to be his big thing.

I'm one of four boys, so growing up all of our Christmas gifts were 'pre-tested' by Santa Clause, at least that's what my Mom said as she would give my Dad a smirk. To this day, my Dad is excited for our birthday's or Christmas cause he gets to give us toys he likes.
