A YouTube channel with just around 432 subscribers realized an insane car idea, using a Power Wheels Barbie vehicle and a Honda 240cc single cylinder air cooled four-stroke engine. Grind Hard Plumbing Co joined the YouTube community late last year and has since then developed a few crazy concepts of objects and recorded them in performance with high-quality cinematographic craftsmanship. The channel also features a video of a two-storey rotating tree house.
The aforementioned updated Barbie Ford Mustang "was ultimately transformed to race a shopping go-kart." Grind Hard Plumbing Co spent four days on the construction of the car — including the extraction of the engine from a Honda CRF 230 dirt bike and its integration into the kid's auto toy. The modified toy car also boasts an installed cam and big bore kit.
