When I was super, super young we had one of those old 200 lb diecast metal pedal cars that people are fixing up nowadays and selling for $80,000.
I remember taking it out into the street to ride because it was so difficult to ride in the yard and driveway because it weighed about 40 lb.
It worked really well in the road except it was on a hill.
When it started going down the hill it was really hard to make it stop. Well the only way to stop it was the Fred Flintstone way beings that it didn't have a floor.
When you would put your feet down the car would roll until your legs got jammed up under the seat. LOL

@bookerdana those things are worth so much money nowadays. People find them all the time and they fix them up and paint them all up like a real car.
