Question about your cars

I’d let her in. I got a roll of nOS seat fabric.

Reasons such as this are why I love survivors with their chips and other imperfections, if something were to occur it will be no worse than what the car has endured previously.

Thinking back... I have to attribute the cultivation of my auto insanity to the rides I had in Musclecars from the time I was born. My mom's car when expecting me and I came home from the hospital in was a 68 442 coupe White over Blue, there were all kinds od cars around all the time, but the next car was a Big block 2nd gen camaro and then I remember the 9k mile 440 six pack superbird at 10-11 years old I will never forget with me shotgun my dad videotaping in the center of the rear and his cousin driving. 110 down the 4 lane black top, every time it hit the next gear the video went from out the front glass to views of the headliner!

I will have to find the photo of me with my baby blanket at about 3 years old taking screws out of the inside of a 1940 Ford.
Meeting my dad with a handfull of screws from everything in the house I could reach was his penance for teaching a 3 year old to use a screw driver!

This is also what I love about reproduction parts (albeit the best you can get)... if something happens, worst case is send another check to OER... now, exterior paint on the other hand....

As long as they ask and are respectful of it, absolutely.

Especially kids. I was that young kid in awe many, many times. Hell, there's pictures of me in the Camaro from when I was all of 6 years old.

I've always been annoyed by the 'rub it with a diaper and don't let anyone within 30 feet of it' crowd. It's a car. Yes, a car we've got blood, sweat, maybe tears and definitely money in, but they won't do anything that can't be fixed.

Of course, that's a lot easier to say when your stuff already has chips in the paint from yourself as a youngin.

Trying to break the girls in gently!! This was a few years ago. The last time we went to a cruise night, Ava (the oldest) wanted to wear ear protectors!! After a little while I convinced her to take them off because it really isn't that loud!! The youngest (Kate) wanted to go faster!! Love those girls!!
