If
you thought you saw this little red wagon tooling through
town Friday, don’t worry, you were not hallucinating.
This street-legal, oversized Radio Flyer belongs to Rick and
Kathy Sullivan of Kathy’s Collision Center in Clinton and
was built by Rick and Dick Skelton of Lincoln.
Sullivan said that as far as he knows, there is only one
other Radio Flyer like this one, built by a couple in
Alaska. Sullivan said theirs is only a two-seater, though,
and he wanted a four-seater family wagon.
The Radio Flyer is on a 1995 Oldsmobile
Ciera chassis
and took four weeks and four days to build.
When Sullivan pulled into the Graue parking lot on North
Kickapoo, he was immediately surrounded by people anxious to
get a look at his larger-than-life toy.

base closed in 1996. Eight hundred pounds of dynamite and
18,200 feet of detonating cord were used in the implosion.
