So my wife calls me and tells me that her sister gave her a "Power Wheels" Jeep for our son Zach. Wait a minute, I've seen that thing. Isn't it a pink and purple Barbie Jeep?
Yep that's the one. I get home to find him washing it in the back yard.
He already loves the stupid thing, and as much as I want to, I can't throw it in the trash in the middle of the night like I had originally planned.
What to do? Well, I decided to load the thing up in the back of my pickup, stop by and pick up some rattle cans and beer and then head over to my buddy Nick's house. tearing it apart took about 5 minutes, I wish real cars were like that...
We started by drinking some beer, then we started painting the bottom black:
We then painted the top olive drab and the bumper, rollbar and windshield frame black. It ended up looking like this when we were done:
Now the little dude can drive this sucker until the wheels fall off. It actually has pretty good get-up-and-go when the battery is charged, it will spin the tires mercilessly when he takes off from a dead stop.
