If it's like the one above they are available in many different vehicle models, Ford, Holden etc I saw a few being pushed around at a recent
Australia Day show in Newie, sorry I can't point you to where they came from though so this particular post is worth SFA

Ye its crazy. We saw a guy at nostalgia fest pushing one we asked all he said was he made it. Wouldnt say where he got the body which sucked. Might
have to source a body from the states and make one.

Keep an eye on ebay. I got one from a swapmeets. They arnt made anymore but there is heaps out there. They were originally pedal cars or battery
driven kids cars.

I am making the bugs like the red one with my grand daughter in it,I currently have a stretch under way,a white one and a sister car to Brookes little
bug available for sale.
I make them from by hand as a hobby and will do them to order as required.They started out as a pedal car with a chain drive but as time has gone on I
have added a floor and a rocker to cater for the little ones from when they can sit up,removal of the rocker mechanism makes it a push car with the
bar attachment at the rear,the floor can be removed and a "driven as a Freddie Flintstone" car or the chain is fitted to allow it to be pedalled
until the child won't fit in it.

Mine doesn't have the chain drive set up. It's old school linkage pedal assembly.

That is why I decided to make them progressive,I can supply without the rocker and the chain disconnected making them a push car or just a bare shell
without a chassis if that is what the buyer wants and they build their own.
