Luckily (at least so far) my kids love the old man :) My son that is most ca=
pable actually really likes the 3. Everyone is really looking forward to get=
ting in and taking a turn driving the relic. Way too much of completing the r=
estoration is in my head so we better finish up soon cause ya never know !!!=
Trust me, it's all fun. Great experience with all the kids and grandkids. Y=
ou guys should all enjoy these antiques and pass on as much as you can to th=
e next generation.=20
