Grandson's "Boat" / Wagon was created by Canadian Hot Rod RC Boats
Hi
I started this a while back - but has been on hold for while - had few health issues to correct

My son & my brother (40 year Street Rod builder) - decided to help me out a bit

My version of a "Little Red Wagon" - It started when I ran across a mess of Oak and Birch and 4 wheels - it's been a few months but my family helped a lot to finish for annual "Show & Shine" coming up - we needed some wheels for the grand kids.

Its Oak and Birch 26" High - 20" wide and 54" Body with 10" Motor - 280 brass screws and lots little things

Hope you like - made me feel awesome to see 'son' put last clear coats (4) on

What's the switch for on the motor ? I was thinking it was to turn a motor on to turn the prop slowly and maybe an outboard motor sound. How much does it weigh empty ?

The switch is for LED lights under and in the nose. There is 3 blue LED under and 2 bright blue forward and on end of motor.
There is a 9V battery in the top of engine - beside the inside spill box for cup holder on top of engine..
There is also a LED strip on dash that lights up dash with push button on dash. You can see LED (some) in video

The blue LED under is for "creating water under 'boat' " at dusk and front and rear are just 'warning' lights for cars etc. Dash lights are for them to play with

Thanks for looking


Randy
