Default They help with everything but the racing

These boy are a big help. They helped me tear down a short block to see if it was going to work for our race car (NO). We found another short block and we'll try it again. At this point in time we are sanding the body and getting it ready for paint. It set outside in the coastal air for over two years. As soon as it is painted (which I'm going to do) then we move on to the fun stuff (motor/trans). The boys that are in the program are only 13 and 14. According to children services even if they were 16, as long as they are in the foster system they won't be able to drive the car. I told them if they get their education (diploma) and stay in this program, They can race the car for a weekend at the strip. It's all about the kids. We need more programs like this around the state. The kids love it and so do I.
