Addison's custom wagon

[RodneyPierce]

Hey guys, just wanted to share with my boating buddy's here as well. For Addison's first birthday, me and my dad have decided to build her a custom Radio Flyer wagon. So, needless to say, I designed up a wagon, and went out and bought a new "classic 18 flyer" wagon. This weekend we got started on building it. Here is the progress so far. Still a couple more weekends worth of work and it will be ready. Its getting painted "hot rod pink" with a black frame. And thanks to our own Zach Matson for the name, will be called "Radical Flyer" Anyhow, onto the pictures. I will keep this updated as I go.

Dad starting to tack the frame together:

Tell dad to put a little caster in the front king pins. She will move (wiggle) around a little with out it.

No need to stop there- I'm thinking adjustable front end, heck might as well start her off with good stuff Pops B)

Good stuff Rodney- Love that child like it your last day brother

Heat up the drop axels and bend... (twist). Might be option.

[RodneyPierce]

Grim, Ill toss it together here the way it sets and see how she goes. I can also put a slight amount of toe out in it as well, that might also combat the issue. It will have threaded swedge tubes for the steering linkage so will be adjustable.

 

[Tom Foley]

Needs Wheelie Bars , 4130 Chrome Moly of course !!

 

[RodneyPierce]

Foley, dont give me too many ideas man!!! LOL

I did tell the wife last night that I made the frame beefy enough to add a motor later on Man the look I got from that!!!

 

[Grimracer]

Dude.. you need to RAT that dog out.. Antenna with a skunk tail too!

Grim

 

[RodneyPierce]

Grim, its headed in that direction. I found a set of 3.5 inch chrome fog lights that Im going to mount on the front drop axle as well
