Member | Thu Oct 14 09:42:03 Couple Created Radio Flyer Wagon-Car (video) October 14, 2010 03:20 AM EDT Fred Keller and Judy Foster took a childhood memory, added passion to it and began a retirement project that is now turning heads. They are driving around town in a larger-than-life-sized Radio Flyer Wagon. What was once a 1976 Mazda pick-up truck is now a shiny red wagon with a eight-foot handle. The vehicle attracts positive attention where ever they go. The project took Keller and Foster 11 months to build and was completed in August of this year. "I think the words I hear the most often is 'awesome' or 'cool' or people go by and give us a 'hi' sign," Foster said. According to KTUU, "The wheels are made from hub caps and detergent bottles, and the steering wheel is the actual wheel from a wagon. What do they do to stay warm in Anchorage, Alaska, while driving around? Gloves and blankets. What would your dream car be if you could build one off of any childhood memories?
