No word on the assembly of the pedals and drive system? A demonstration of the car would've been nice too.
Thatd what i thought i was gonna see.
But i guess its like s bicycle
@@nabri-nfg3262 I thought it was like push (leaner) pedals not rotational. I believe the crank is on the rear wheel and there is long rods between the pedals and the crank.
No, go build your own.
What do you not understand, it's setup like a bicycle...
The pedal cars originally sold for about $2.6K in 2008. There was one at auction in the US that sold for $4.2K in 2020.
"early 20th century" "wave of nostalgia" "trip down memory lane" who are these 100 year old child vampires getting nostalgic for pedal cars?
Ha that was my thought exactly. Even current grandparents never seen these things
I was born early 90s and played with peddle cars that belonged to my grandparents, who then got me my own.
😂
@@KLune92 Me too, but in the 80s
Yo dummy the Morgan 3-wheeler which was the inspiration for this trike is still available. YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT CARS.
gonna build me a homemade one for my niece for christmas. this video got me all energized to start the project.
howd that go? You've got a few hours left
@@AceSkates it didn't. we got snowed in but good and we've been digging back out for a week and a half now.
@@nybergsgarage Update?
@@carllinden533 ha! never happened. we got a snowstorm that generated seven foot deep drifts and my tractor died in the middle of the driveway. I spent all of december trying to get it running again.
When I was a kid I had one of those little plastic cars. I can only imagine the type of rich children in these things. I imagine they all wear fancy little suits and have memberships to the country club.
My grandparents had several that where hand built like the ones shown here. granted I was born before everyone's greed of reselling. They had 2 that they had since children, and 5 that they bought for grandkids. Found the receipts they only paid I think 300 each in the 90s from local builder.
Peoples greed ruins everything
Full sized, road registerable Morgan 3 wheelers are still in limited production, (or where until c.2020, just haven't seen anything more recently).
They're stupid for not adding a removable hardtop & windshield & a few other mods. So it could actually be used as a daily driver = more practical = more incentive to buy one. To save money on gas and cost of a new car.
If a 🛵 scooter,motorcycle or car company built something similar. They could sell a ton= reliable, low cost, fun to drive, practical commuter, 70+ mpgs.
Nice, but why the fake engine outside of the hood and *in front of the radiator*
Ye why tho?
Because that is the replica of Morgan 3wheeler
@@danijelvidos523 yep
the morgan three wheelers used an air cooled V Twin engine so the "radiator" was strictly for show
because it looks nice
Damn, might need to buy one of these with these INSANE gas prices!! OMG
you could also get a four wheeled bike that drives like a car mod it.
So true... they do sell electric tricycles on Amazon with cargo space if you want more options.
You could buy a real car for what they cost.
I think if a scooter 🛵 or motorcycle company built something similar. Using an aerodynamic weather enclosure with removable hard top & added a 250cc engine. So it could cruise along at 65mph & get 70+,mpgs and sell em new for like $6,000....That they could sell a ton.... It'd be cheap, practical, reliable, fun to drive, low maintenance, could be used year round & safer than a motorcycle. Either gas engine or 120V AC standard 🔌 plug-in electric.
I wish I wasn't sick and build one myself. Then when people ask me about it. I'd tell them everything it can do & tell them I'd sell it for $6,000 & see how many people want to buy one.
Imagine popping a wee electric motor in that, that'd be fun haha
Or a nice noisy 2 stroke. Like a 250 or maybe a gsxr600 motor 😈
Pity about the replica V engine. A pure pedal car would be supreme.
can we take the time to appreciate him for not getting a splinter with all the wood work with no gloves 🧤 he is the true hero🪵🫡
well, that's not so hard to accomplish, actually I've probably never worn gloves for woodworking. I don't recall ever having a splinter either.
เจ๋ง awesome ❤
Woah, i want that!
Very cool😎
Awesome
Penso che sia il sogno di tutti i ragazzi avere tra le mani un gioiello simile, ma anche di qualche vecchietto come me.
where can i buy one of these
I need the same car(design) with four wheels(quadricycle) instead of three(tricycle). Where can i get one and how much it costs? Is it available for shipping to South Asian regions? If so, how much does the shipping costs? Can anyone share me the details for these queries?
where can l buy one to ship Hongkong
"he puts the lotion in the basket"
But how do they test them once complete ?
Where I buy it?
King-sized Pin-Router! Awesome!
Now, just add a BBS-HD, and a 2kw-hr battery…
probably the closest I'll get to owning a Morgan Three-wheeler...goodness how I would love one!
simple enough design. you could pretty easily hire a welder/mechanic to build you one from scratch.
Everybody gonna be using this with these gas prices
Big boys big wheel!
Redundância dos cilindros, leveza e simplicidade para velocidades baixas em congestionamentos.
Speak English!
Should be titled, "How it's assembled."
nice car
lmao said the same thing
Fun Facts: The chassis are wrangled from the great chassis herds of Montana and the leather seats are harvested fully grown from trees in Idaho.
but how did he install the pedals? i didnt see it
Where can I get one of these? I need one lol. Although I have no idea how one would maintain such a device.
same as a bike.
@@sheilaolfieway1885I don't know of any bicycles that use a steering wheel, nor any that have TWO front wheels, linked by a set of steering linkages etc. BI-cycles have two wheels, TRI-cycles have three. So, not like a bike at all.
Alright, I want one.
Nice pedal car foreign Technology
Making a Morgan Three-wheeler replica pedal car
Cool car!
Where can I find one of these?
Turn left at the traffic lights, third house in the left. Or... do a Google search?
Perfekt ! Super ! Price ?
Imagine making that a go kart
Find a real 2 cylinder to replace the fake one and have a "real" Morgan!
@@BBulletinIt takes more than just sticking an engine on the front of a pedal car to make a Morgan replica.
Porsche 917: 'The worker mounts the welded tubular around the gearbox and engine. Rubber racetires and brakes are fitted. Body is painted with Gulf colors and married with the chassis. A team tries to make the wiperblade not fly off. Redman climbs in and drives the hell out of it.' See I can ease an infinite more complex vehicle into even less assembly steps including a drive test. Nevertheless, I like the result on here and much better than any E-car. 🌷:)
😊
Its 1930 Morgan 3 Wheeler
My goash its gorgeous 💖
Morgan have been making "modern" versions of their 3 wheelers for several years, at least up until recently. Not cheap though.
Always wanted one as a child. Do they make adult size versions?
yes, today they are called electric bikes
@@BobbyAerosSo when has an electric BI-cycle been the same as a pedal powerered TRI-cycle, especially one shaped to resemble a Morgan 3 Wheeler? I assume you know the difference between 2 and 3?
do they make these in adult sizes?
They should do away with the fake engine and exhaust pipes and add speakers and an iPod.
But some ebike gear in that and it be twice as fun.
That Morgan Pedal car looks more adult size , l could do with one of those . As l had to send my diving licence back due to having siezures , lm sure l could drive this without a driving licence 👍
I believe there is an instructables page online on how to make a pedalcar, but probably not THIS pedalcar. Just saying in case someone wants to know.
if that was me I would put 2 hub motors on the front rims, make storage cases in front and back, and have a snap on convertible top.
Then why don't you? I'm sure lots of people would like to see the end result.
TOM!
where are the pedals?
What is the top speed? 🚙
5 knots...
Depends on ur legs power 😂
"How it's assembled"
Lol
I saw this trike at the vintage car dealership in my neighbourhood and I wonder how much it is. Id love to throw a moped engine in it.
scale it up and add an engine
So they are basicly velomobiles
Children's pedal cars aren't generally classed as velomobiles, although, depending on the drive train, they may have a lot in common. Recumbent 'Delta' tricycles and velomobiles usually have front wheels positioned further back.
Wow I’ve never been this early before!
Me neither. And it's a cool episode!
That's what your mom said last night
It's it a wave of or a desire to save money on gasoline?
Why not just say it's a 1920's Morgan 3 Aero racer?
どうもはじめまして日本人です所でこの自転車の車お値段価格どのくらいですか
He puts the lotion on the skin or
He gets the hose again.
Why isn’t there an adult version of this?
There is though Morgan discontinued the version we saw built because S&S discontinued building the engines... I think they just release a new one but its powered by a watercooled engine now
@@cheetahjabBut the Morgan is a real car, not a pedal car. And they are also hugely expensive, being hand built and in limited numbers. Various kit cars also exist, but again... not pedal powered.
Saya kira menggunakan mesin,ternyata sepeda gayung(gunung).Kalau di jawa dinamakan "becak cinta".
Starting off my day with a *banger* from the science channel. Let's get this bread boys
Buy e-bike kit for it and will be Tesla car
Wish they made adult sizes.
Velocars were popular in the late 1940s, but they died off as proper cars gained popularity.
The main issue with them is that you're way down low and can't be seen by Karen in her SUV, so she drives right over you.
@@SkorpychanThis isn't a "velocar", it's a pedal powered tricycle. You're talking rubbish about being too low to be seen. Morgans aren't that low, certainly no lower than many sports cars like a typical Ferrari or a Lotus. But then potholes are low down, road markings and tree branches lying in the road are low down... yet drivers see them. As a former owner of a Caterham 7, which is very small and low down, I never had any problems being seen. As a recumbent tricycle rider, being much lower than any of these, I have far fewer problems with cars than when I ride on "normal" bikes. Quite the opposite.Drivers NOTICE it. Stop spreading rubbish based on ignorance.
@@another3997 I've had SUVs utterly fail to acknowledge my Ford Focus is there, because it's below their window line.
It's a street legal bicycle?
But who is "He"?🤔😄
Surprised at the horrible wood finishing, but still pretty cool little cars
just put a battery in it already.
Built for luxury, not for speed.
Small leather seat with backrest that cannot be adjusted, no headrest, open air with no roof, no air conditioning, smaller windshield than the infotainment screen on your economy car is luxury to you? Don’t forget about having to do the moving work of pedalling yourself and not having an engine to do it for you.
@@groundedgaming When you are 5 and wealthy, Does all that really matter?
When I watch "how it's made" I truly expected, from raw materials to finished product.... what happend to this show?
i don't see why electric motors could be added to this to make them like e-bikes.
Electrically assisted recumbent tricycles exist. Depending on the drive train (and the local laws) it might be possible to alter one of these pedal cars.
That cliche voice on the commentary 😂😂😂 pure cheese.
Can this be labeled kids RUclips? This is offensively simple video.
"He"? I can't believe they gendered that worker!/s
BTW, the Morgan 3 wheeler was reintroduced and production finished in 2021, so the adult version is out there.
American pedal cars were too small for kids to fit in….their popularity tanked.
Pointless video, it’s obvious how it was made, nothing shown how the body was pressed or the wheels laced etc.
A hogwash
The placement of the decorative engine make no sense whatsoever!
It's styled after the original Morgan 3 wheeler car. The engine is placed there on the original because it's air cooled
Cancel this show it's so boring and repetitive!
