Kasey's 63 (new build)
 

And so it begins, (again), we rolled Kasey's 63 into the shop after more than two years of sitting. She bought it at 13 with her own money, and 6 years later we don't have much to show for it.

Her vision is the photo shopped car below.

Your daughter is awesome! :cheers:

I mean that in a respectful, non-creepy-old-dude way of course :hello: :lol:

I 2nd that thought. My kid started to tear my car apart when he was 8 years old.

Thanks guy's. I dont have any son's, three girl's and only one followed me out to the garage.

She can frame structures, shingle a roof, and pour concrete too, lol. There is plenty to do on the north "4" :lmao:

I third that! Great memories for both of you to reflect back on! Not to mention teaching her some good vlaues! Hard pays off!:thumbsup:

Quick story, came home late one night with a car on the trailer. Said to my 12 yo son, c'mon out and look at it! Two second glance and he said "is that all?" (not impressed, turned around and walked back in the house). 14 yo daughter then came out and said, "Dad! Awesome!! And we spent 20 minutes going over the car.

Either gasoline runs in your veins or it doesn't, lol.

:cheers:

That says it all Ron !

That is awesome!

I have just started working on a car with my 8yr old son who claimed it as his own this past summer..

I was out working on my truck and he asked me "when are we going to start working on my Mustang?" lol

It's a good feeling when your kid takes interest. Keep us posted on the progress!

Very cool build and that girl has good taste! She sounds like a great young woman on many levels. This will be a fun build to watch.

:captain:

Right on. Good family times!
