"Pedal RV" - riveted aluminum pedal car for kids

For your reading and perhaps building enjoyment --

I really like projects like this, which bring riveted aluminum construction (yay clecos!!) to smaller, more manageable projects.

Looks way easier than those plywood ones.

Currently building the wooden cub, what a pain in the arse. The plans and directions are horrible.

I think it would be easier than the wood. I built the p51 wood one for my granddaughter. With wood you must buy the best plywood available or your bends don't work out well and it is hard to get a really good finish.
