    Is a doodle bug made to move by a hand pump TFG?

    Very cute! Like Perth, I'm curious as to its method of propulsion...

      Hi Grace and Lowell. No hand pump. The Doodle Bug was built on a Fairbanks-Morris service car, so it is fully motorized and goes just fine. It will take 10-12 passengers comfortably.

      Make that Fairmont Service Car, also called Track Maintenance Car, or just Putt-Putt. They have been replaced by pickup trucks with flanged wheels lowered to the track.

    I see doodle bugs around here, but they are a lot smaller.
