Was not sure where these should go in the forum but maybe large scale is appropriate....

In the UK we call them Dodgems - a fairground ride - I think they call them Bumper Cars...

A guy in the states I gather has decided to make some of these into Road cars using Kawasaki and Honda engines... he has made 7 so far and the fastest will do 160mph... look like fun

If the driver built them, he can't make them any smaller....

Indeed - but what a way to go!

Those are very cool and I like the registration plates on them, too :o)
Nice find, David.
