My new helper

I was working on the Jetta this past weekend, and my daughter decided to come help. Maybe she'll still be interested in cars when she gets old enough to actually help out.

haha that's awesome. Cute kid :)

better start hiding the keys

I used to help polish the cars when I was a toddler. Too bad I used a screwdriver, and only went for the freshly painted ones.

Moral of the story: Hide the screwdrivers.

And the wire cutters. My daughter attempted to help me one time when she was about 6. She grabbed a pair of wire cutters from my toolbox while I was under the K5 Blazer I had at the time and proceeded to trim off anything that stuck out, mostly wires. She didn't realize that some of them where important.

My cousin realized he could poke a screwdriver through the rust bubbles on his father's Datsun pickup. He spent a few hours on the job--rust bubbles can really hide the true crappiness of a vehicle.

What can orange juice and vodka REALLY do to paint?

Oh... I get it.

Depends on the vodka.

I had twin uncles that painted their fathers model A Ford, with house paint, white, they were three, couldnt reach very high. No they didnt have cameras at the time. I understand their father was not amused thet his black car was painted only 3' up with white house paint.

I can't remember ever doing anything damaging to a car when I was little.. though I do remember doing something damaging to myself..

I thought my father needed the torch he had just put down. So I picked it up for him, by nozzle

I notice that she is pointing out the bad ground that is causing the window not to work. Good kid.

I wish a bad ground was the reason the window doesn't work. She's pointing out how overcomplicated this car is.

I can't wait to breed a couple helpers of my own.
