So my youngest grandchild is having his 3rd birthday tomorrow. Guess which one of these is his gift??? I'll give guys a clue if you're having trouble.  :D  I received one of these for my 3rd b'day as well! This Murray Tot Rod is over 60 years old and is just like mine except mine was red. I hope he likes it!

Nice gift! Mine was Red as well. My aunt borrowed our car when visiting and ran over mine in our carport.

Didn’t see the Tot Rod at first and thought, damn, you got a GTO for your third birthday!?

Wow, your Tot Rod definitely left an impression after all these years too, but for different reasons. Probably a hot topic at family reunions though. Did she ever make it up to you?

I'm sure she apologized, but my parents probably thought it was a good lesson for me to put my toys away. Man, I use to take that thing apart and put it back together with any of my Dads tools that I was able to reach. Good memories!

Well my grandsons 60 year old birthday gift seemed to be a success.

Here he is on his inaugural test drive.
