Man, we carted way back when I was a kid. We did it ghetto style, no motor. Pulled a big cardboard box out a the dumpster behind the thriftys, snagged a shopping cart for wheels and built the chsis out of wood. then we set out to the steepest hill we could find and shot down until I carts finally couldnt be repaired anymore. Thinking about it now, we were nuts, cars parked on both sides of the street, and you had to swerve into an open driveway or risk shooting acrocss a busy street. Those were the good ol days. I remember once, I swereved into a driveway, just as my front tire fell off again. The nose dug into the ground thrusting me completely into the box body of my lil car as it went end over end about 3 times. I climbed out real slow after that tumble. I would never let my kids do anything as dumb as that.Back then there was no money. If you wanted something you had to make it or go cut a couple lawns to buy it for your self cause mom and dad were both working several jobs to raise 7 kids. These days kids just put thier hand out and expect someone to put something in it.
