I have a 3 year old son and a 1 year old daughter and am teaching both of them how to work on the vettes. My son loves cars and always wants to "go work in the shop on co'vetts" and judging by the way my daughter likes to play with hot wheels, I think she will like to work on cars too. She's a little too young to tell right now, but working on vettes is a good way to spend some quality time with the kids.

Thanks to all, proud and smiling from ear to ear. :D If you think he has got a good grip in that pic, check out my home page. He has both hands and staring at the odometer and tach. :lol: Would have posted but I couldn't get it right.
