    I recently purchased this car in Australia. It was made by Simplex Models, Mineola, New York. I understand Simplex are still in business but I have tried in vain to contact them. Can anybody tell me about Simplex Models and / or any information on this pedal car please.

      CollectorsWeekly, where we're at now actually has a great reference area for pedal cars. Good luck!

      That's great. See what you can find about Simplex Models and let me know.
      They were obviously big enough to excite the Ford Motor Co but although they are still in business they are hard to contact.

      I don't care if it was made of left-over ICBM parts, I think it's cool! DMK, when you get the heavy rust off, try Ospho. The metal won't rust further if not exposed to real bad conditions & you can "build" over it & do your finish.
