    A friend of mine bought an old metal pedal-car for his daughter. He brought it to an auto body shop and had the guy restore it. The guy used paint left over from another job he did. It came out so pretty he wouldn't let his daughter take it outside. Those old kiddie-cars held more charm than the plastic ones they make today, because they were made of real metal like Daddy's car. Wonderful job, as always.

    I never comment on videos of any kind, but I feel like I need to say two things. One, the level of skill shown here is incredible. Two, I really like that it's not a clipped 15-minute video showing only highlights; the hour long is a perfect length to see and appreciate the entire restoration. Excellent work.

      I was born in '54...this beautiful restored car reminds me of my Dad's Buick Roadmaster! I never had one of these, but played with several kids in my neighborhood who had them...I understand that these in good original condition are very desirable to collectors! From start to finish...it is always a delight to watch a MASTER CRAFTSMAN apply his or her skills, as you certainly have done here! ❤👍

      I agree, the longer video format and the lack of music allowing for the natural audio of a craftsman and his tools. This might be weird, but these videos are very ASMR-inducing for me. They are very relaxing to listen to.

I noticed you forgot the N in “Does Not have a breaking” on your warning sticker.. I promise I am not the Grammar police Shooooot I make more mistakes than that.. but I thought it was funny and cute because it now said “Does Ot have a breaking” Keep up the amazing work..

Her and My Dad used to watch a lot of your restoration videos together.. Until we lost him almost 17 months ago.. Than out of no where tonight she asked me if I would sit and watch this one with her tonight.. It was Bitter Sweet only because that was THEIR THING to do together but at least glad she asked me if I would fill in for him because she was thinking of and missing him so much..

    Did anyone else stop and look up when Velcro was invented? It surprised me to see it used on the original seat of a 1950s toy. I thought it was a newer invention than that. It was invented in 1957, so it still would have been unusual to see it on a children’s toy back then. Maybe it was added later?
    Fantastic restoration, as always.

    Thank you for the magical childhood memory of my grandfather's own restoration/reinvention of a very similar auto circa 1949-1950. Minus today's technology, all the work he did on our car was by hand. After sanding by hand and repainting by brush (silver "radiator" paint in place of chrome), he removed the twisted, broken, and partly missing pedal assembly and mounted the body onto our American Flyer sled. Come winter, we were the envy of every kid on the block as Grandpa, surely feeling as proud as the toddlers in his charge, towed them through the neighborhood for all to see. Totally enjoyed your video ..after finding it quite by accident on what otherwise would have been another lonely Thanksgiving night. Again, more than 70 years later, I can't thank you enough! (P.S. -- Hope you find the missing "horn" one day.) Ich wünsche dir viel Liebe, Glück und Frieden!

Two questions though. Why didn't you keep the steering wheel black? Would have been a nice contrast. I wondered why you spray painted the body, but powder coated the rest. Nice touch blurring your picture out while putting on the hub caps. Can't wait for your next video. This was awesome!

    This is extraordinary, outstanding and most skilful work. Your hard work, patience and craftsmanship are on another level. It cannot get better than that. Those grandpas would be extremely happy and amazed to see this better than a factory piece of art 🙏

    My husband & I LOVE your channel but by far this is the most amazing project to date. What an amazingly beautiful car! I love the details in the custom gauges, brake lights & the license plates. Pristine body work & paint job. Bravo!

    I was just watching, relaxing, enjoying the process. And then that tread guage came out and made me spit my drink all over my screen. Bravo, sir!

    Hervorragende Arbeit in jeder Hinsicht! „Beeindruckend“ ist eine Untertreibung. Vielen Dank für den ausführlichen Rundgang durch Ihren Wiederherstellungsprozess. Ich habe auch deine Lederarbeiten bewundert. Bitte weiter mit solchen Videos. (Excellent work in every regard! "Impressive" is an understatement. Thank you for the detailed walk through your restoration process. I also admired your leather work. Please continue with such videos).

    After watching, I read through your notes. I liked everything about the restoration, a beautiful piece of workmanship. I'm glad you called in help when you needed it.
    I'm surprised you managed to actually find a manual for it.
    My brother and I had an old wooden pedal car, but it was so heavy, no concrete to drive it and and the grass was too thick to really get any good use out of it, other than having someone strong enough to push it. It finally fell to pieces in the 70's from the weather. Oh well... we preferred to build our own billy-carts/go-carts.
    Again, brilliant work, thanks for sharing it with the world.

    Well my friend, I have never seen this level of attention to detail on a pedal car in my life, just incredible. I have watched Chip Channel restore Tonka cars on this level, but not this scale. I too am from Michigan, and this thing is worthy of the Sema show. You are one talented individual, and what a great shop you have there, I thought you were gonna flame it out, looks like Buick Special Lead Sled, it`s been a pleasure to watch, just insane, my friend, I subbed.

    Bar none, this is the most masterful restoration I have ever seen!! Your skills are head and shoulders above anyone I have seen. Thank you for sharing this piece of art so fully. The hour seemed to fly by. After such a display of incredible shills, why would someone mention a typo on ‘not’ ? Thanks again for sharing your work.

      I'm glad I wasn't the only one to notice the typo. It's incredible however, given all the care and meticulous attention to detail that the only flaw is as miniscule as a typo. Easily overlooked. This is a magnificent piece and the time and dedication that went into it's restoration...nay rebirth, is a testament to the resolve of the individual who took the time to not only work on it, but to film, edit and present for everyone to enjoy. My hat goes off to @meinemechaniker for entertaining and delighting us all with his skill. I look forward to watching even more of his projects come back to life.
