Re: Can you find a flaw?

I'm surprised this thread is still going with all the squabbling going on, yesterday I had a thread locked after 10 comments (5 or 6 if you don't count the mods posts) and no one really said anything bad. Anyway I agree with the above comments that whether or not the kid put in his money, the fact he loves these trucks and that he helped in the build makes him a rightful member of our hobby. If some guy with money buys a truck that has already been finished, does that mean he doesn't belong here? I plan on building an el camino with my son who is 9 now, I want to do it just so we can spend time together and he can learn some skills on how to work on cars. I figure I can shell out the cash to buy a project Elco for cheap and we have the next 6 or 7 years to build it. My son definitely isn't a rich man's kid, I'm a full time student right now. Right now he does some chores around the house for a few $$, when he gets a little older he can mow lawns or what ever to help fund the project, I figure that will help him learn the value of a dollar. I'm not trying to be high and mighty or anything, and I know a lot of the comments weren't meant to be taken seriously. I just think some are getting a little bent out of shape for nothing, we all love these trucks and that should be enough to make us belong on this site.
