I havn't been the garage for over a week now. After the thrash to get the 40 done for the show I felt I needed a break.

Well I had been talking about pulling the engine out of my roadster and putting in another one, and just cleaning it up in general. It still has mud from Indy and salt From Bonniville http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif So I felt it was time for some much needed maintanence.

So I go out into the garage today just look around and this is what I see http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Race has been home from the road and I guess he REALLY misses working on hotrods.All he has been doing is looking at over done show Queens for about 3 months.

Needless to say I was shocked. He hadn't said a word to me about taling the car apart and it really took me off guard.
HE's a good kid so as long as can figure out how it goes back togeather with a coat of black paint and a kick ass flame job I might forgive him..

I think I'll call this parenting tech http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

With BOTH the roadster and VooDoo Child http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

.....and since the roadster will be done this weekend, you'll have more time to help on your favorite hot rod, Big Olds http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
