I am long overdue on posting these pictures.

A while ago, Bob Brewer posted pictures of a bed that he built for his child and reinstalled for his grandkids. I had a new grandson at the time and it took several months to convince my wife that we needed one, too.

Below are pictures of the bed. It is loosely patterned after our 1926 roadster pickup. It is the right size for a twin mattress. It has a real Model T steering wheel and spider, and real wooden spoked wheels. We wrapped pool noodles with black vinyl for the tires. We stained it brown so it would look more like bedroom furniture.

My grandson was very helpful in the construction of the Model T. He loves it and spends lots of time playing in it.

Thanks to Bob for the great inspiration. BedBed 1Bed 2Bed 3Bed 4Bed 5
