Actually guys that's my other grandSON Austin.....just before a haircut (although it's still a bit longish). The "lunch box" is actually his first tool box......a handfull of cheap wrenches, a crescent wrench and pair of safety glasses. Right now that box is enough for him, but I have a smaller roller chest that needs refurbished set aside for him when he outgrows it.

I usually babysit him for a few hours a couple days a week while his mom is taking college (and grandma's working). I'm a firm believer you can't start them too young.

Whiplash as far as Cade getting the keys to the truck, he's already asked about the little 87 Ram 50 I put the small block in
I think he things the 37 is too far away from being driveable . I may have headed that off though. We talked yesterday about the possibility of starting on the 74 Mustang II his grandma used to drive (it got parked with a tired engine a few years ago) this summer. It's got a 2.3 that shouldn't be too bad to go thru and we would probably pull the automatic out and put the 4 speed back in. Basically a drive train I would trust a 16 year old with Of course that would be dependent on his grades which at this point could stand a bit of improvement.
