The history of the cars goes way back to the 1890’s, back then they were all the rage with pretty much everyone, and the kids loved them! But who wants to just look at their mother or father driving, kids wanted to drive themselves. Who came up with the idea for them, and who built the first pedal car? No one knows. It was most likely built in a shed or backyard, but what we do know is that most of these cars looked awesome!

Believe it or not, you might be able to sell your used tires. If they are in usable shape, but simply need a patch, a junkyard might be willing to buy them from you in order to repair and then resell them. In fact, you can actually make quite a bit of money selling used tires to the right cars for scrap if you shop around to find one that will pay a decent price. Some people have used this to bring in a secondary income for their families, placing ads in the local papers collecting other people’s used tires for free, and then reselling them to a local junkyard.

While spurious are a great option, there is a better one. Take a visit to your local auto salvage yard. Getting parts here could not be easier. Most of the times they are available of the shelf for the more common auto models, if not you can either search the wrecking yard yourself or an employee will retrieve the part that you require.

You can generate a better return if the car has some custom parts or if it’s a popular vintage or a highly popular commercial model which will be farmed for parts.

NSR cars are the racers choice. They are not cheap but their products are pure thoroughbreds, designed to race in competition and all NSR products are engineered for speed. They do have a limited range of car styles, but each car normally has a variation in motor configurations to choose from. A wide range of spares are also available to allow you to get the very best performance from their range.

You also need to know if you want ready-to-run rolling stock or kits that you make yourself. Typically, HO scale offers the most rolling stock kits. O and N gauge rolling stock comes almost exclusively ready-to-run. Kits tend to be more affordable than ready-to-run cars.
