No car seat though, bummer. car seats... ugh.... just spent 3.5 hours last night in a baby car seat class.... pretty scary what can happen if something goes wrong. No way I'd strap a baby into a frickin VW! Title: Re: Der Transaxle Shop A+ Post by: John Rayburn on April 08, 2008, 17:19:08 pm 1641 with Kadrons.

Title: Re: Der Transaxle Shop A+ Post by: Sam K on May 30, 2008, 05:27:50 am Awesome! I remember playing behind the back seat of my Dad's '67 sunroof bug while he was driving.
Title: Re: Der Transaxle Shop A+ Post by: WCB Hitler's Hot Rod on May 30, 2008, 06:51:07 am I had the same living room space growing up. As a child my parents didn't have seat belts in their cars and I can remember one trip we took from Canada to Cali ; my domain being the rear package area. Now, as a parent of two beautiful boys all my cars I own have seat belts and we don't move an inch until their buckled.

No way I'd strap a baby into a frickin VW! he wants to mark his territory. it is a common thing with chickens as well. they need to know there picking-order. Jim is doing a good job in raising his boy and in letting him know who is boss. good one Jim. i slept three weeks in my sons bed and took all the presents he got, less the ones i didn't like.

Now, as a parent of two beautiful boys all my cars I own have seat belts and we don't move an inch until their buckled. yep i can relate, even if it is a pain in the @$$ to wait. everybody in their seatbelts. and as far as safety is concerned, i believe in the protective properties of all those chairs, but if you get hit, it is all a matter of pure luck... :-\ Title: Re: Der Transaxle Shop A+ Post by: The Ideaman on May 30, 2008, 17:24:08 pm car seats... ugh.... just spent 3.5 hours last night in a baby car seat class.... pretty scary what can happen if something goes wrong. No way I'd strap a baby into a frickin VW! Why were you sitting in a baby car seat for three and a half hours? Wouldn't the couch be more comfortable?Title: Re: Der Transaxle Shop A+ Post by: team97 on May 30, 2008, 17:40:49 pm The main reason I put a cage in my car was for the kids safety not mine.
Title: Re: Der Transaxle Shop A+ Post by: John Rayburn on June 25, 2008, 04:50:57 am Glenn, you keep your kids in a cage?
Title: Re: Der Transaxle Shop A+ Post by: Neil Davies on June 25, 2008, 09:07:47 am Glenn, you keep your kids in a cage? I'm a teacher - I think ALL kids should be kept in cages! :D Title: Re: Der Transaxle Shop A+ Post by: team97 on June 25, 2008, 15:23:27 pm Glenn, you keep your kids in a cage? Me in cage = kids safety (after taking them on the first "Santa's Little Helper Cruise" approx 2 hours) "Are we there yet?, When are we gonna be there?"
