I fancy trying to make one of these for the kids - think along the lines of the Radio Flyer wagons.
I'm keen to hear if anyone has done this type of thing.
Even just the thought of it takes me right back to building go-karts in my yoof. Only now I've got box section steel and a mig welder rather than a hammer, nails and whatever wood we could find.
🙂
google, "custom radio flyer", should give you loads of ideas.
Ours is just a cheap one painted and stickered to match the camper.
It's a big thing in the VW camper world, they're fantastic for towing little ones around at a big VW show. Picton junior slept soundly in his at Busfest whilst his parents sneaked G&T's from Mum's handbag and dad danced to bad Welsh amateur rock. 🙂

It's also a bit of fun one-upmanship between the little ones. One lad was parked up next to another and he casually reached forward, pushed a button and big VW symbol projected onto the ground under his wagon. Straight up gangster.. 😆

I've seen them with hydraulics, battery motors, 2 strokes, lowered, google will reveal all.
We bought one from a German toy shop, I think it's intended to be a garden wagon though so you could look in the gardening world for inspiration or donor vehicles.
I can't help, but do post the work in progress, I love threads like that.
Picton, that's pretty much exactly what I want it for (festivals and VW meets [we have a 1984 T25 poptop])
I love the story about the one-upmanship, pure genius.
