Ricky Bobby's Rod Shop

Great gauges, and I dig the coke bottle opener Good thinking in the chair design, I asked about them and Ricky tells me he picked them up at a yardsale for 5 bucks because they're cool and dated 1945. I dig the pinstriped tool box tooTheir website http://rickybobbysrodshop.com/

the wagon wheels sorta throw me... there aren't any indications of an engine, or horse hookups, so is this mechaincal? Or just gravity drive? Cool signature gimmick, the Moon Eyes Lions and bears pulling this cart.. .. makes me wonder how those sheep are dealing with the team mates on the pull best christmas tree ever?
