Like I said about video games. I was in garage with my dad since diapers, no video games but we built lawn mowers, bicycles, trannys, and I learned not to wrench on oil filters or use indian head compound to help seal carbs and radiator hoses!!
. Yes it was the joke in the house forever--for sale carb and intake will not seperate-lol. HE taught me how to think and envision how something works and why. Got me where I am today. Shit now that I think about it we built a few of those clear model engines to show me how they work. I can tell a potential mechanic in minutes, and they aren't out there anymore.
I'm a youngster and I love work on car boats anything with a motor!! I will be a mechanic one day just need to go to school to get certs. And my dad was not a mechanic at all I work on all of his stuff since I was 13 and I built my first four wheel drive when I was 15 mind you I took a 2 wheel drive and converted it! There are still a few of us out there don't lose hope! I work on my boat myself with the help of some of my friends who know more than me but I'm always will to learn more!! I hope to meet you guys some day it's hard to get down to so cal lol
