That's pretty cool! My parents wouldn't go anywhere near my car!

Pretty much. If they did try to even consider touching the engine i'ld probably kill them as neither know anything about cars, other than they move. I don't let anyone near the car without me

My father loaned me some money for my 1jz swap. My mom went with me on a 2 hour drive each way to pick up my bomex front bumper in her 07' Maxima.

My folks won't touch my cars. But they let me store my cars and parts at thier place. My stepdad has supported me in my endevours and gave me a place to live after my life went to hell and I went back to school for Auto Tech. After I get my Supra up and running and Integra rebuilt my next project will be to find and rebuild a 1976 Pontiac Trans Am to repay him for all he has done for me over the years.

Now one of my friends mom has adopted the crew as her "sons". She will come out and bring us homemade cookies or cook us food when we are working on the cars. She also drives a modified Ford Escort ZX2 and has a few speeding tickets to her name.

"The Reaper" doesn't sound to scary anymore :p

I'm at college, but my dad gives me tips over the phone. My mom would rather talk about the weather and what I have eaten for the past 100 meals.

Well let see...my dad changed my oil last week, installed new Iridium plugs, re-calibrated my TPS sensor, replaced my worn radiator hoses, replaced all pads in my brakes, and changed the fluids in my tranny and diff...oh and he also washed my car ...... :naughty: :naughty: :naughty:






























Seriously though no one in my family knows anything about cars except me and older brother.... :nono:
