Man Builds Full-Sized, Street Legal Little Tikes 'Cozy Coupe' Car


British man, John Bitmead, built an street legal, full-sized version of Playskool's "Cozy Coupe" car that we all probably had at some point as kids.  Why you may ask?
Just thought, what a wonderful idea to make something like that, but real.
That's good enough reason for me.  It took John roughly 1,000 hours and £4,000 (~$6,500) to build the adult-sized kid's car.  It runs on normal gasoline (petrol in the UK), has fully functional head and tail lights, an air bag, side mirrors, and can allegedly can reach speeds of up to 70MPH (110km/h).  He'll ultimately use the car to help raise money for charity.

You can see the car in action watching the embedded video below.

Stay nerdy my friends.
