Buckle up and burn rubber with the Hot Rod Playset Plan, a slick and speedy playground centerpiece inspired by classic 1930s custom cars. Available in two sizes, the smaller 6×9-foot model is perfect for younger children or more compact yards, while the larger 8×11-foot version offers extra room for bigger kids and more active play. With curvy fenders, a chopped cab, and detailed engine accents, this playset brings all the retro flair of a vintage hot rod right to your backyard. Kids can imagine revving the engine, racing down the track, or pulling into the pits for a quick tune-up.

Beyond its cool styling, the Hot Rod Playset invites customization. For the ultimate backyard automotive adventure, pair it with the matching Pete's Gas Station & Garage Playhouse. Together, they create a complete retro car scene where kids can fuel up, tune engines, and race off on new imaginative journeys. Whether your little racers are cruising the neighborhood or staging their own car shows, the Hot Rod Playset is ready to roll.

Huge fan and will very likely build many more in the future!

The plans were great, easy to read and understand, and more importantly easy to execute. For someone with limited woodworking experience, like myself, I thought the project turned out pretty great!

Extremely pleased with the plans and this project but more importantly, LOVE the idea that Paul and his Playhouse designs are helping parents quite literally build family memories and encourages kids to get outside and play!

Huge fan and will very likely build many more in the future!
