What kind of parts do you need

What kind of parts do you need

Wheels/tires.

I found some on amazon with free shipping so I went ahead and got them on the way. I have a problem paying more in shipping than the part costs. Lol

Next up, some kind of traction mod. Kid burns through tires faster than I do.

You can always try this.

why in the hell do you not have it converted to 18 volt yet?

Bumping since ill be doing this on my daughters barbie ford mustang gt I'm buying off craigslist for her birthday coming up.

I hate how that power wheel mod forum isn't accepting new members since I have a ton of questions.

To go from 12v to 18v, do I just purchase (3) 6v batteries and retrofit the connections?

Somewhere out there is a pink mustang that has a lot of miles on it!!!

So what age is too young to put them behind the wheel of one of these plastic hotrods? Hailey turns 1 in a month and I need to start planning for her first car.

Can't wait for Carpenter to be old enough for this. I've got my eye on an Red F150 Raptor.

I miss my little girl being the size required to fit in her old mustang. One day she fit, and the next she’s was all knees and elbows. (Tear)
Back when she got it.

And her now.

Lately I’ve been working with her on a simulator. She’s getting good enough on the sim that I might take her out to a parking lot soon. If she can drive a 300+hp 5speed turbo before she’s 9, and can hit a bull’s eye at least 100 yards I’ll feel like I’m doing my job.

Mine started driving hers at two years old. She didn't do real well at first, by the time she was three...Mario Andretti look out!

Now that she's four, all she wants to drive is my F250.

My kids were in them at 2 and 3. Depends on the maturity, if they listen, and environment they'll be driving in. If on concrete , get ready to buy spare tires!!!
My son @ 2 in his, same year.

Crap! another distraction for me. My son's jeep is some off brand 12v and his sis's Barbie Jeep will run circles around it. We can't have that.

anyone know of a battery solution that is reasonable? My inlaws picked up one at a garage sale and the battery is toast.

Figure out if it was 6 or 12v
Then get that bolt battery and wire it up

Be sure to put a switch inline of the lights. They tend to REALLY drain the battery...

Good point. I have Morgans on a separate battery
