I am on the son end of this. My dad (parents) never pushed anything on me. Quite the opposite actually. I remember growing up wanting to learn about cars, but never asked. By the time I was born my dad wasn't doing much with cars. The GTO had basically been parked and the '35 made the move from my grandparents summer place in NJ to our house in VA in '91, but only because my uncle was taking over the summer place year round. I remember sitting in the '35 several times and once wiping the whole car down with a paper towel in the garage because it was dirty and I wanted to do something on it.

My only advice (of course take into account I am about half as experienced as most of you ) is to feel out their interest to see if its there and if not, move on to something else you can share and maybe one day they will come around. I can only imagine how many miles the '35 would have if we had started when I wanted to way back when, but it took one of the worse times in my life to create one of the best. In 2004 I totalled my '97 Camaro SS. I had worked hard to pay most in cash and borrowed the rest from my partents. My dad made a joke about putting the engine in the '35 and a couple years later after graduating college we started fumbling through it all.

Thank you all for reminding me these are times I will never forget. Sometimes it's too easy to get mad along the way or not be happy with the progress, but I have to remember that it's all for fun and good memories
