Custom Stretch Power Wheels Jeep Brings Back Childhood Memories

When I was a kid, I was jealous of a neighbor kid down the street. He had a Power Wheels Jeep, one of those little drivable toy Jeeps you could get over at Toys “R” Us. I could have probably run faster than he could drive it, but it was still by far the coolest toy on the block.

I can only imagine what would happen if 5-year-old me could see what toy makers and car enthusiasts are making today.

Recently, a video of a tricked-out stretch Power Wheels Jeep has been making the rounds on YouTube. This miniature Jeep was equipped with a full stereo system with sub-woofers mounted on the back, an iPod plug-in next to the steering wheel, and a Phoenix Gold 800-watt 5-channel amplifier mounted to the front. It also has workable LED headlights and custom leather seats.

The custom job was done by Underground Autostyling, a custom auto shop in Florida. You can watch them show off the vehicle’s full features in the video below.

It is surprising how jealous I am over a car made for elementary school kids. I mean, I’m a grown up. I could buy a real Jeep if I wanted to. The good news for Underground Autostyling is that if I want their custom Power Wheels Jeep, then kids are definitely going to want it too. If these modified Power Wheels Jeeps take off, in a few years we could get a whole new generation of young Jeep fans itching to buy their first Wrangler.
