This was a recent barn find by a local picker and I was lucky enough to snag it.

It is a Hamilton USAF 3521 Staff pedal car made by Hamilton in the 1950's. Pretty rare model from what I can find on the interwebs. Will have to do more research and find a good restore place to do it up nice. Its mostly there minus the wheels, front bumper, and one side rail.

I have one of those! Here is mine after I restored it. Speedway motors sells some parts and decal kits. Nice find!

^^ that looks super nice, you did a great job restoring it. How about any before pics? Was it as rough as the one I found?

Here is the before picture. It had some cool patina but I wanted to restore it and clean up the sharp rusty edges so my kids could use it.
