cool story. you're a lucky guy.

LMN8R · 08-10-2002, 03:21 AM

My boys (ages 6 and 9) help me spot '67-'72s when we're driving around. My oldest can even tell the years(67-8, 69-70, 71-2) by the grilles. My wife thinks we have "Old Truck Radar"!!! Gotta love those future gearheads.

Great story,count yourself lucky i cant get my son to help on anything around here.He has no interest in cars,trucks,or anything else for that matter.By the way he is almost 18.He better hope his rigs never break down........lol

*Zkast* · 08-10-2002, 11:17 AM

pulls at the ole heart strings eh?

My middle son is the same way... He helped build the engine I'll be installing next week.

Funny, when he was 2 or 3 he wanted to know what each part of the engine was.. So for 2 days I taught him each word and the meaning behind it. For the next week he was walking around telling everyone he knew
" Intak - a - maniflood".

Ahh the good times

weasel29gm · 08-10-2002, 11:44 AM

Cool my boys helped find 3 in k-mart plus there good to help and spot our trucks.

72shadetree · 08-10-2002, 01:19 PM

she's 27 months old and says thats "Daddoo's Truck" when she sees one, she watches car racing with or without her grandpa... and she evens "fixes" things as she puts it, she can work a wrench. It's definately in her blood. I hope she stays into those things.

woodrow59 · 08-10-2002, 05:28 PM

My 8 year old stepdaughter loves hotwheels and has brought me home a couple. And she made me a card for father's day with a picture of my truck she had drawn. Plus she helps me on the truck ,,,,,,, as long as there's nothing good on the disney channel !!!! LOLOL

Kids are great !!!!!!!

Just remember--you'll NEVER regret the time you spend with 'em---but you sure will the time you didn't!

AK70SWB · 08-10-2002, 06:15 PM

that's probably the coolest thing i've ever heard!!!! my son is 8 months old but will be able ( i hope ) to pick that one out soon ( i already have that c-10 in my collection) but that would be really cool if he picked that one out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
