I taught my step son to drive a stick in my factory turbocharged BMW.

No grandchildren yet. But at 34 here’s a couple pictures of my son Marty this past summer.
It really is special getting to share something I enjoy with him.

Nice.

My youngest Grandson Bennett, he turns ten next week.

My granddaughter is all about my cars and we have a local show Frankenmuth Autofest every year and she begged me to take my Red Chevy short bed this year. She also loves my chevelle and tends to be under it every time i am!

Love this..:beers:

Passing the torch
 

I agree 100% having grandkids that have as much passion as I do about these cars is priceless..Two of my grandsons kept pushing me to keep in contact with the owner of a '69 Z/28..The car was a one owner original Z/28..The owner contacted me after 14 years and said he'd sell the car..He said he made the decision to sell me the car because of my grandsons..He wanted the car to go to me to and keep the passion going for generations..My grandsons made the sign/photo on their own and ask me to send it to Bud the owner and I did

My son is and always has been pro-stick. I've had both and still do, but nowadays I mostly prefer the automatic.

I bought my son a 5 speed manual '91 RS for his first car. At the time we lived at a lake and there was a boat landing a couple of streets up from us. The parking lot was a fairly good sized lot with a fairly decent gradual slope leading down to the boat ramps. First I had him start at the upper part of the lot headed downhill for him get the feel for the clutch and learn the engagement of it. It only took him several times as the downward slope worked in his favor. Then I had him starting on the lower part of the lot working on the uphill slope. It was almost natural for him as he had it mastered in probably less than 15 minutes. Doing it this way was much easier on the clutch and other components...

Great pics Steve! Happy holidays…
