Yeah the wheels are a bit out of proportion, but it is a toy and those are the ‘rules’ to make something toyish…overexaggerate the features. The headlights were designed with lighting in mind but our safety team says no to that one as they don’t want to portray the image that it is okay for kids to ride these at night. My good friend here headed the project up and when we were doing the concepting and refining of the idea we made sure to leave as many elements in here to make this car as real as possible as we both will be grabbing on of these and doing some mods to them; real lights, extra motor, sizes so we could drive it (I’ve drove the one in the pics…looks funny to see me in there). We’ll also throw a nice paint job on there too for extra measure.

SCsteve: designers use Alias or Rhino usually, while the engineers use ProE when it comes to the computer. But all projects here start with pen and paper. The hardest part with PW is meeting all the size and safety requirements while still maintaining the ‘look’ of the real thing. Our safety standards are twice as stringent as the government standards and can be a big pain to work around.

I forgot probably the coolest feature on the car…my Mustang was used for the sound effects ![http://tcstangs.com/forum/images/smilies/msmiley1.gif](http://tcstangs.com/forum/images/smilies/msmiley1.gif) Turn the key and there’s a series of sounds; idle, revs, brakestand, burnout, drive brake, braking, etc. They hooked up microphones to my car and started recording while I destoyed the parking lot at work.

I like the tire marks leading out to the warehouse. I used to leave some of my own in the parking lot (as best i could) with the warehouse golf cart 🤣

Jacking the brake and turning the wheel with a 300lb cart behind you=fun

So would it be easy to switch the headlights and tails back to functional, for a potential owner?

And that’s pretty sweet you car will now forever be embedded in time, and listened to across the country.
