Sunman: I have 19 other cars that those boys will grow up with.
Infact here is a short story; Tyler (the 11 yearold) was sitting in my just completed 31 A, coupe. About 300HP with very good cam. and very short large exhaust, similar to cobra. I was sitting in my chair polishing or doing something as we were visiting. he asked if he could start the car up. I said sure. He started it, it died, I told him to give a little gas, it fired up and ran good. He revved it up a couple times, i gave thim the kill it sign, then couple minutes he asked to do it again, so second time same thing. after shut down, he got out of car with his hands shaking and grinning ear to ear. I asked what is wrong, he said the car made his heart beat fast and gave him the shakes. Grinning ear to ear he said "papo that is going to be my car, I want that one".
I do think he is a gearhead already, he has been hanging out in my shop for at least 7 years. As much as I would love to keep them all I gotta start clearing out some day. So if a cobra goes the kids will not suffer.
