It's soaking over night and tomorrow he will get to help put it back together. I'm glad he is finally old enough to help out. He did do some welding last winter on Big Bertha. Mom was not amused though. She worries too much.

i offered my parts truck (a '55 2nd) to my 13 year old son if he helped me finish up the '59. he's motivated after i showed him pictures of some finished ones, and he's going to be driving in a couple years. Mom says no big blocks for teenagers, so a small block v8 it is!
