Daddy Daughter time and a new project
If you have heard that new song about "just fishing" by Trace Adkins about spending time with his little girl. Change the words to "just driving" and that was my day for 8 hours.

Re: Daddy Daughter time and a new project
Clean looking burb from the pic.... Nice score.
I'll bet she enjoyed the one-on-one quality time w/the old-man too.

Re: Daddy Daughter time and a new project
Ok, I do have to give my little girls credit and tell you that they did sit on the sidewalk and watched in amazment as I rattle canned my truck but I think they thought I was gonna get in trouble for spray painting my truck.

Re: Daddy Daughter time and a new project
Nice, I love having "little helpers". I'm only 17 so my little helper is my 3 year old brother. I think his favorite time was when he got to take a hammer to one of my old body panels.

Re: Daddy Daughter time and a new project
Enjoy the time with them they grow up so fast. Just helped my son with his brakes last night (till midnight) and my other son and his K5 last weekend, (till 11:30), their both in their late twenties now but I still love working together with them like they were when they were younger.

Re: Daddy Daughter time and a new project
Since I snuck over to your place yesterday at nap time, I didn't get to bring my little girl. I think between the two of them, they could probably knock out the rest of that truck, no problem. She might be little, but she's mighty wiry.

Re: Daddy Daughter time and a new project
Wyatt, use the element of suprise on her. I think they secretly like it.

Re: Daddy Daughter time and a new project
Never thought of that! Good idea! I did just find a very nice 1989-1991 GMC Jimmy, K5 style that is. It already has a lift and some decent tires, body is straight with minimal rust for an Indiana truck. Wonder how she would feel about that one pulling up in the driveway?

Re: Daddy Daughter time and a new project
WOW how time flys. When I went to get this truck my twins were a couple weeks old and now they are both with in weeks of taking thier first steps.
I have made a last minute decision that I have to go on Hot Rod Power Tour. I can't make the whole thing but at least 2-3 stops. I don't have anything close to being ready to take but the Suburban is the closest I have and is big enough to carry the family and all the crap the two babies and a 6yo need to have with them. |
