Re: Does your wife help you work on you truck?
Not only NO... but hell no! It would be nice for just the company or support, but she will be out there for 10 or 15 minutes then shes gone! I admire the other guys that have the support... anybody wanna' trade?

Re: Does your wife help you work on you truck?
Mine is supportive and never complains about the time spent on my truck or the money spent but as for helping,,,,,,,,,if I ask she will but she's gone as soon as I turn my back. Now and then she'll come out and keep me company while I'm working but that's pretty rare anymore.
In 97 when we found out we were going to be parents, and I put most of the truck away and sent a large portion to the scrape yard(rusted & junk) she pushed until I started messing with it again. In 2000 when the second son was concieved and I shelved the truck, she again pushed for me to get going on it. We've been together for 16 years, 2 great kids(1 gear head & 1 techie), 2 family battles with cancer she always pushed me to do what I love doing,,,,,work on my truck. Hell at one point she threatened to leave me if I sold what was left of the truck I started with. When I told her I found my current 70 she gave me bill money to get it, with the understanding I had to sell some parts to replace it. So yeah I think I'll keep her for awhile. Frank

Re: Does your wife help you work on you truck?
My wife will throw in a hand on any project if I ask her. I only usually ask when the chips are down and there is a deadline. Garage work isn't her first love my any measure but she's a farm girl and will get her hands dirty without a second thought.
