Kalahn's Wacky Crazy Adventures

  This is a story and display of a bootleg cart I've had almost my whole life. I have not been able to find anything about other copies of this specific cart or who made it, but I have a general idea of where it came from. Join me, as I show you the cart that I played more than any in my childhood summers. When I was about 6 years old I started going to my Grandpa's place ever summer.
