Childs Ride-on Vintage Van

The plans for this sturdy and elegant toy can found in "Make Your Own Wooden Toys" by Jeff Burke & others, published by Windward (ISBN 0-7112-0468-3).

It is not only modelled on the design of a vintage truck (The Ford Model AA), but also the design of a vintage toy. Children in the 1920s and 30s pushed them around, drove them on delivery rounds, sat on them, and stored all manner of fascinating objects in them, just as they do today. Ideal for out of doors, only be sure that no one gets the idea it's a good mount to ride down a hill on, since there is no steering!
