T16 restoration starts in earnest

[Alex Blair (RIP)]

That is the finest kind of job you are doing on the carrier..The wee lassie will be able to use what you are teaching her for the rest of her life..
My two daughters did and still do do some of the maintenance on their own vehicles ..When they were in their last year of university I bought them each a used car..a Toyota and a Honda Civic..
They would do their own oil changes and my youngest daughter wanted to do EVERYTHING herself,DAD!!!
On her little '83 Honda Civic I wanted to repack the rear wheel bearings ..she wanted to help..we did the first side together and she let the jack down..jacked up the other side and did a fine job of repacking the bearing and putting it all back together..
by herself..thank you..
She is still like that today..
Last year I gave her a new cordless drill and a whack of attachments and this summer I went through my tool boxes and took her down a bunch of new tools that I have no long a use for(Retired Refrigeration mechanic/gas fitter)and my 4 year old grandson immediately latched on to the telescoping mechanics mirror I brought down..
It is his favourite toy..
So you can never start them too young..Keep up the great work dad...
