It rather reminds me of Sarge's car, what with the blinkers and all Kids seem to grow old young these days  Very nice car, how about some interior shots as well. And what about the engine? |

cool. my boy isnt quite 2 yet, but he already likes coming in the garage - he eats the 20 year old spanners though, and his mum isnt impressed. He likes the taste of oil though which can only be a good thing!

What a great thing to do with your boy. Our kids were raised on VWs; all types. One daughter drove a Jetta, the other daughter a 59 sedan and my son earned the right to drive my 67 Cal looker all his senior year. This hobby is generational for many and it makes it something fun the whole family can get enrolled in.
Very cool Russell. He will have some great memories of all this when he is older.
