    I had a tub just like that about 45 years ago. No clue on age. I upgraded mine with newer landing gear and rode the hell out of it on the hills in Little Rock, AR. I used it to pick up thrown out bicycles in Belle Mead NJ later on. At one point I had about 50 bicycles in my parent's basement there. I quickly harvested the good parts and tossed the rest.

    The kid who had that wagon ran it hard! With the wagon jacked up, it will be great for swap meets at the shows. You don't have to bend over so far to get things in and out of it! 😂👍

    It will be cool. Contact Radio Flyer they will tell you where to find the numbers on bottom of the pan. They sell replacement parts. I received one last year that I will restore but haven’t checked the age. I just bought a antique Fill-up with Bill-ups wagon, hope to restore one day.

    Super Project ! When I met Big Daddy Ed Roth at a car show in Cincinnati, years ago; he had a Radio Flyer he had Hopped Up with big tires and a Briggs motor. Your's kinda reminds me of his Hot Rod Wagon. Looking forward to your creation RoadKing. ! ! !

    My old wagon has bearings in the wheels. A little oil and it’s as good as new. That looks like a little too much wheel to me. Might be hard to pull around at the shows in the dirt? Good luck and Cheers Buddy

    Not sure what year that one is. I had one that I got in either 1963 or 1964. Had a ball with that for years. With those big wheels and tires kind of reminds me of the old Big Foot but you can call it the Monster wagon! lol

    I have an old rusted sleigh that I intended to restore but my family and I are going through some hardship so I’m wondering if you’re close enough that I can give it to you or possibly ship it to you and you can make a restoration video for it.

      I just took the top boards off of my old wrecked in the 70s "Speedaway" snow sled and replaced the cracked plywood on my creeper with them. Turned out pretty cool.

  • @jimwright9500
    @jimwright9500 Месяц назад +1

    Looking at the one side with the name it also has a phone number, since it is a 11 digit number I would guess that this one is an early to mid 60's model.

  • @ruben_balea
    @ruben_balea Месяц назад +1

    What was the intended use of those things? Because the design of the handle seems to allow it to be driven from the inside and I can imagine kids going down hills on it at 60 mph
    The "vintage" models I seen (made) in Spain had a fixed handle to be pulled or pushed by an adult... but I was born after safety was invented 😅

    I had to watch this video again because we went to a tractor show. we one of those granny carts we filled that one right up so as soon as I see radio flying wagon for$ 22.00 I had to have it she ended up giving it to me for just$ 20.00 and the Radio Flyer was so much easier to pull than the granny cart I went on the Radio Flyer website and I was looking for the date and I couldn't find it on mine but the Radio Flyer kid is on the side of the thing very clear but mine's rusted too I had those little round red caps on my wheels I wanted to change the wheels too cuz it is more easier to take this car to the Tractor Show than it is the granny cart now they're saying where you can find the numbers is in the back of the seat or underneath I think they were saying or somewhere on the handle I looked at the website briefly and I figured I'd go down and look at it first before I talk to you it's in my basement again thank you for the video
