Great video to show him in years to come.

My daughter used to do a lot of things with dad until she got older and found out it was more like work than fun.

Great video and great way to spend quality time with your son! He will remember these time together for the rest of his life. Now you've started something....this is how the Corvette passion began with me. I did the same with my 2 sons and both are into cars, one is even as bad as me!

Just be careful, I think my son learned his first cuss words while I was working on my Chevelle.

Looks like he is having fun and learning how to work on a vehicle will be something that will help him when he grows up. Plus maybe he'll end up owning a Corvette like his dad.

Very nice. Wife and I have recently become empty nesters, son finished college and moved out for his career. Sure wish I could spend the day with him at this age again. They grow up entirely too quickly. Enjoy your lad!
