Pedal car from I think the 30's. Have the wheels and tires, but they have a bit of dry rot.

10,000 rpm sounded amazing.
I had a 1978, similar to the attached picture (not mine).

Rode for four years, then suddenly I felt all too mortal on it and had to sell.

I only weighed 125 lbs back when I rode it, it was all the bike I needed at 400 cc's.

Yeah, I think the big change from '78 to '79 was the rectangular master cylinder reservoir. Mine was the dark red. I too realized I was mortal and passed the bike on to someone else.

Up at our local airport, an older gentleman who has decided to step back from flying due to his age, had his old plane sitting out getting ready for sale.

If any of you remember seeing the Disney film "The Rocketeer" just might recognize this plane from the air racing scene in the beginning of the film. This Stenson was parked in front of the stands with the spectators . It's rather cool to see a local plane in a Disney film
