Harry P. Posted April 14, 2008 Posted April 14, 2008 (edited) To paraphrase Shakespeare: Is real? Or not to be? The answer: MODEL! Edited April 18, 2008 by harrypri
Zoom Zoom Posted April 14, 2008 Posted April 14, 2008 I spent way too long researching this. Clues...hmmmm.....aha...finally...nailed it!
george 53 Posted April 14, 2008 Posted April 14, 2008 Wood parquet floor looks real to me,Sooo I vote real.
Darin Bastedo Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 If you consider a pedal car a model, I say model. check out the size of the steering wheel.
george 53 Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Hey Darin,maybe it's just ol tymeie power streering?
kelson Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 I'm undecided on this one, but i will go with 'model'.
george 53 Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 Ya know guys,Darin may have sumpthin there,I went an took a look at it in a larger frame an I dint see any brake lines,So maybe he's got a better eye than me.But it's too late to change my vote.

Well it's not too late for me. and Looking at it as closely as I can (150%) Pedal car.. So that would make it a large Model..
VW Dave Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Can't say why, but I'm gonna say 'model' this time....it does appear to be pretty big too.
Harry P. Posted April 18, 2008 Author Posted April 18, 2008 Close vote, but this time I WIN!!!!! WOO HOO!!!! It's a model! A big one (1/2 scale!!!) Next ROM coming Monday..

Clues for me, before finding it: the brake drums didn't look like the real ones, and the big central steering wheel. Here are more shots:
