Who has children that help them in the garage?

[JQ]

My wife and I have two girls 10 and 5. They both love playing in the garage and going on cruises. Sydnie my oldest
enjoys going to the track and taking pictures of all of the different cars. Camille tries to help out where she can but really enjoys going on long drives through the foothills with the windows down and wind blowing in her hair...

When our son was young, he had zero interest in cars. He would go for a twenty mile run with his bicycle. He was in army cadets did biathlon skiing and shooting. Never liked team sports. Once he got into the army the bug bit for some reason. He had an '84 TransAm for a while then got a '69 Chevelle, bucket seats, console, but six cylinder. We rounded up a 454, 12 bolt, and turbo 350, with him doing most of the work we transformed the car. About five years ago I told him about a '65 Acadian Canso (Canadian Chevy II) hardtop. He ended up buying it. The car had 25,684 miles and other than a few blow ins in the paint, the car is all original. Again it is a six cylinder car. Might just get a later model LT1 one of these days. The car still has crayon marks on the firewall and on the underside of the hood as well. It has the thick,clear plastic seat covers that you could have the dealer install. It has one of those kleenex dispensers under the padded dash, radio, and backup lights. Never give up. Some kids just get interested a little later.

I'm 27 years old and just absolutely love cars. I've invested my money ever since I was 12 years old with the goal of owning a first gen camaro. I now own two first gen camaros and loads of parts that I've bought up. I've been blessed to have a family totally dedicated to cars. My dad has been into cars since the early 60's and currently has his own collection that we've restored. My mom's dad has a collection 19 strong that he started in the 1960's and her brother also has a 1967 camaro. My family has done a car show for our local fire company for the last 24 years. Every family is truly dedicated to the car hobby.
