I have one of these for my daughter as well,  but I'm having a hard time finding cool wheels for it. I tried go-cart wheels but they are way to big.

Nice! I bought one for my first son when he was born in 1991. His younger brother (born in 1993) enjoyed it, as well. Still in the attic. I'll have to dig it out and get some updated shots.

very cool. I tried putting some race stickers on Lucas' toy car, but he seems to somehow know the difference between it and my '67. He prefers the latter. In fact the other day I let him sit in the driver's seat while I was wiping it down and the little stinker tried jamming his plastic toy keys in the ignition switch.  ::)
Little kids and cars go too well together. Looks like your grandson already has the fever. Good job and good luck!

I got one of those, battery powered and all. It's still in the original box, I picked it up about 10 years ago at a local Toys-R-Us. It looked like it had been there for at least another 10 years. I think I paid less than $100 for it.
