I was going to call you out on that (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Great job your son is doing. You are winning in several ways....your son is developing an interest in older cars (which fewer kids have an interest in these days), you are teaching him a valuable skill, and the car is getting fixed!

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) Yes those are some great welds! It's so nice to see a young person working on something in the REAL world as opposed to the virtual one. He is CRANKING that thing out! Is he going to paint it today and rebuild the engine tomorrow (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ?? |

He can build one for <$100 with some 1x2's, a roll of plastic, sheetrock screws and staples. I used an old furnace squirrel cage fan w/ a $2 AC filter! Shouldn't take your son more than about 20 min's at the speed he works. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
