Nice pic Don.
Where is that classic kids kart body?
Maybe someone has an old pedal car chassis laying on a scrap heap that you can graft in under it??
You could age the whole "modern" frame to have similar patina.

Hope you don't mind, but thought I would post up some pics of one I restored 3 years ago.
A friend has rescued the pedal kart in the pics below.
It is a Kettler , and they seem to be the Bee's knees of these type karts. Let me know if I am wrong.

This one looks and is as bad as it looks, but his boy has absolutely fallen in love with it.
The steering is buggered, brakes non-existant and clearly, paint and rust are issues too.
That said, he wants me to see if I can resurrect it, as he had saved it from the crusher, and as I said to him, if I had seen it on a trip to the tip, it would have found its way into my car for sure.
IT WENT THROUGH QUITE A LOT OF EFFORT TO GET TO THIS POINT......
The other stickers came from my collection of allsorts.
You will notice, the colours are Sinclair Oil Corporation colours.....
So if you had any chassis like this to modify and build in under the body, it could be perfect.
