Mechanical Kit Ferdinand Retro Car

A drivable wooden vintage car with a spring-powered motor and movable body parts.

Once assembled, this retro car—styled after the 1930s and 1940s—rolls on its own thanks to a spring- and inertia-powered motor. The doors, hood, and trunk open, the four-cylinder engine under the hood is a replica, and the suitcase-shaped key fits in the trunk.

278 laser-cut parts, 2 to 5 hours of assembly time, no glue. A manageable weekend project with a functional result.
