Though your wife may not be thrilled with the idea of having the sheets on such a bed I bet your kid thinks you’re the year’s best Dad.
I’d be inclined to agree with the kid.
Well done.

Love all the detail, like the headlights, and front VW chrome, and the stickers on the back. I bet the steering wheel is a big hit. Working horn? too cool!. Very nice project!

hub caps, steering wheel, headlights – It’s hard to imagine how thrilled your kids are and most likely too young to understand the thought and design involved. A great great job well done.
Did you have to make a schedule for turns with the steering wheel ?
