Pedal Cars

Pedal CarsHello. Pedal cars have always been a passion of mine. I have collected antique toys since I was a child and pedal cars have always interested me, not so much because they were a fun toy, but because of their classic vintage styling. Since I'm an artist, another thing that has always intrigued me about these fabulous toys has been their attractive color schemes, chrome accessories and outstanding graphics. The fire truck pedal car to the left is one of my favorites. Click here to buy it:

I have started this blog in hopes to open the communication and start a dialogue between other pedal car enthusiasts like myself. Please feel free to share your stories, favorite pedal cars, and the pedal cars on your wishlists. Perhaps you might have a fond memory of finding one of these gems under the Christmas tree making it that one perfect gift you'll always remember from Santa! Here are some other Pedal Cars that kids are finding under their Christmas tree this year! Click on any link to buy the car:

Here's a little bit about myself, I'm a retro and vintage clip art designer. I draw pictures and create graphics for clients who still appreciate the illustration styles of those artists who lived in the 1930's, 1940's and 1950's and in my own way I try to keep those classic eras alive. I have also always appreciated and collect retro and vintage toys including Pedal Cars. If you wish, please check out my web pages:

    1. Hi, I am on the planning Committee for the Arthritis Auto Show that takes place in Dublin, Ohio and welcomes nearly 2,500 automobiles throughout the U.S. We are holding a pedal car raffle and we were hoping you would help us promote the raffle to your customers and fellow enthusiasts. The money will benefit the Arthritis Foundation to fight this terribly debilitating disease.

      Thank you for your consideration and support. Feel free to contact me with questions. Here is the link:

  5. Hi Alison, my collection is full ... rather I was told by my wife that "it's time to stop collecting ..." Hah! But, feel free to post your pedal cars for sale here in my blog. This blog gets a ton of targeted Pedal Car traffic and if I can help you sell a car or two that's great! Good luck! Andy
