Sorry, it is new........>>>>>>>>>>>>:http://www.pedalcarplanet.com/product/AR-2003
Regardless of whether it is new or not, that's still quite a dumpster find. I would assume it's still worth a decent amount, considering the new ones are 250 bucks.
I can also tell just by looking at the picture that it's made in China. You just can't compare the workmanship of yesterday to what they make now. That and all the warning and safety stickers are a dead giveaway.
There are no warning and safety stickers on it, i am not sure what you mean.? Wouldn't the product have a made in China on it or USA? I am a new grandpa so i will be giving it to my grandson of Sept.1/11 so he will enjoy it and it will go to a good home. Thanks for any input as i have never had something like this before.Bob your Canadian neighbour.
Bob, I don't know what Lloyd is on about but if you followed my link you know........they may even have spares, there are a lot of places on the web that have parts as well. I hope your grandson likes it.. GOOD PICK !
