    Notice the steering wheel in upper rear, with cables going downward then under body towards front axle. Recycling to its best. I think they were called “scrootas” way back when…

    yeah, yeah!! This certainly brings back fond memory.
    My last one I built it in 1979. After Hurricane David I had gottten some nice 1/4 inch white pine painted in green on one side which was used as ceiling material. I had left village for Roseau to attend high school, parked under our home in full time driveway, I was thinking of my truck whilst in Roseau. When I went home for Christmas holiday my truck was gone. My second bigger brother had broken my truck, I guess in order that I would focus on High school work. I was saddened and I reminise those moments. He had taken my pride, what I loved. To date this brother still act that dominating way towards me. I sold to a guy one of the best built truck in my community for $2.50. Thank God I can build one now, is a skill.

      The joke is on you -“AH”, why don’t YOU go learn your English. I have taken the liberty to reference the definition of KID for you below, so you don’t have to go too far to stretch your linguistic horizons. Reference Source is the Mirriam-Webster dictionary. Please note definition 3 below:

      kid – noun \ˈkid\
      Definition of KID
      1a : a young goat b : a young individual of various animals related to the goat
      2a : the flesh, fur, or skin of a kid b : something made of kid
      3: a young person; especially : child —often used as a generalized reference to one especially younger or less experienced
