More pics of him up in the engine. lol He is so funny doing this project lol.

 

if you have the passion for cars, then it bonds father/child if they do as well.

Many thought I was nuts to unleash my boy with a Z28. But, 2 years later and he's doing well. He babies the vehicle like I knew he would and yes, I know that he's roasted tires in parking lots but no tickets at all (knock wood). Also, dad used to ride bikes so all my kids were taught to have their heads on swivels and be on the lookout for any potential dangerous situation.

So enjoy the project and getting your child involved will make them appreciate the vehicle more than handing them keys to your car or giving them some old Taurus which they will beat.

 

My son was so excited about starting the project that we told his school that he wasn't feeling good, so the school called me to pick him up. About an hour after he got home he was all of the sudden better. LOL I knew that is what was going to happen.

 

Exactly! My first car was a 98 Mercury Sable (re-badged Taurus) and it had to be one of the most miserable cars on the road. My parents got a great deal and purchased it for $300 from family friends but I wasn't at all thrilled about driving grandma's car, especially because my 2 closest friends owned a 90 300ZX and 95 Z28. As a vehicle, it couldn't have been any better. It was loaded and didn't have any problems, but it had to be one of the ugliest car I'd ever seen especially because the previous owner lacked depth perception so the car was covered in dents. My friends and I used to put the car in neutral and roll down hills with the engine off along with do countless front-wheel drive burnouts by revving up neutral and dropping it into drive.

Shenanigans are prone to happen in a POS like that... however, no stupid is allowed in my Camaro.

 

LOL i thought i was the only one! my first car was an 88 taurus 650 miles, sat for 15 years though in the garage, but i couldnt agree more that crazy ideas multiply when you mix friends and a taurus!
