As I have written before my guys have a thing for restoring older cars and trucks. My son finally got his "71 C10 back on the road. They shot a coat of flat black primer on it to hold it over til this summer. Warmer weather brings out sanding and painting. They just finished a Chevelle for one of the guys. One of the other boys has a 70 El Camino in the shop now.
My grandson has been working on each of these vehicles right along with his Uncle and his friends. So as their birthday gift to him they are all going to help him on his truck. He has a '64 Ford. It needs a lot of love so plans are when the weather warms up enough for bringing out the grill and working outside, everyone is going to get his on the road. Right now it looks kinda pitiful! All the tires are flat and dry rotted, the rear main seal leaks and it needs brakes. He will get to see how working hard on other people stuff can pay off.
Oh by the way the only thing that my grandson wanted for Christmas was for his Aunt and Uncle to adopt him and they did. He really needs that feeling of belonging somewhere that he is truly loved.
