I got the dash put back together and my daughter and Godson decided to take advantage and get some drive time in!

"OK Dad, Hand over the keys."  Cute kids. Gotta teach them to appreciate good cars at an early age.

Warning: The surgeon general has declared that it is NOT unhealthy to smoke your competition AND I just discovered that my corvette is a hybred.  It burns gas and rubber!

Vette(s): 1982 C3 Collectors Edition 44000 miles, sat in the sun most of its life, My wife purchased it for me for Father's Day in 2007 from her girlfriend that had it for 19 years. It is on the road again. I'm retired but it is now my daily driver.
Great picture

My 5 year old grand daughter uses my vett for a monkey bar.  It  not painted yet so I let her with the t-tops off she climbs all over the car when I'm working on it.  Leans on the windshield and look at me when I'm working in the engine compartment. She calls it the little car.  likes to ride in it as she get to sit in the front seat and control the radio through the remote.

My oldest grandson (16 years old) is sniffing around the car.  Not a chance in hell of letting a teenage boy have it to drive by himself. I remember to much about being a teenager.  Party

Kids are great grand kids are event greater.  Feed them sugar wind them up and send them home life does not get any better.

Gilbert, you sound just like my parents!  (But it's even worse in my case because they live 3 hours away so they can really get the heck out of dodge when things are crazy).  But they do love their grandkids, just as I'm sure you do.

When I get this bucket back on the road, first thing I'm going to do is give all three kiddos rides with the tops off, one after the other.
