When someone talks about toy cars made of cardboard, the first picture that comes to mind is a simple, small car that can be held in hand or kept in a showcase. But this one is different.
This car was made from a single rectangular cardboard box.
Cut open the bottom side of the box and save the pieces for making the wheels. Now open the top side lids and and trim the edges in such a way that the adjacent edges can be glued to make the upper body of the car. Now cut out the windows, front and back of the car. You could glue in some transparent plastic sheet to give the illusion of glass.
To make the wheels, cut 8 circles from the remaining cardboard pieces. Also cut 4 strips long enough to cover the circumference of the circle. Now glue the strip around two circles. I put all the small scrap cardboard pieces in between the two circle to give the wheels some strength.
Glue the wheels to the body.
Give a nice coat of paint to your car and voila, ready to go on a long drive!!!
