Title: My son just got his first car! (7 yrs old)
Post by: Stealthmode on March 06, 2010, 09:51:55 PM
   So, the friend that I did that Condo Makeover for was swapping around shit and looking for a new race shell for this year. He did a deal where he bought this crx shell and a fucked up EF hatch for $400. He sold the hatch for $150 the day he picked it up. With the mint SI seats in this thing, and the full fartcan, I told him he should be able to sell thos for $250 or so, and that after that he should just tell my son he can have the car, and walk. So he did.

EDIT: Forgot to mention that my friend decided this car was too much work to make our 5 weeks from now 1st race deadline, so he's racing his car from last year.

   Man, Baby Bin-Laden is fucken hyped about this thing. He told me he wants to paint it black and yellow, with flames?  ??? I told him only hot rod cars can do that kind of stuff, and we call those "mexican ricers". He's still got 9 years before he can drive, but I'm always looking for more tools in the "do good at school or I'll fuck you" game.

That's fucking cool man. But 9 years, that's a long time. I guess its worth it for a clean crx shell.

I might already be, but I'm not willing to find out.  :-X


But 9 years, that's a long time. I guess its worth it for a clean crx shell.

That just means that the sooner I get it road worthy, the longer I get to drive it until he's ready.  8)

No-diggitty. Stealth Shuttle timeframe ended up being 6? years w/rhd conversion. This is a 9 year, LHD, run it project. No problem.

9 years is perfect. That's exactly how long it too to finish the shuttle, so he's right on par.

If you want to get him involved in motorsports then why don't you get him going in Jr drags or go-kart racing or motocross? 

A Jr. dragster would be badass

  Well, I've talked to him about that before, but he won't be able to drive one until he's 8, which would mean next spring/summer. The investment is steep, too. This isn't really about motorsports, rather a more general interest in something he feels is his. If this doesn't work out in his interests, I simply have a crx I always wanted anyway. With the Jr Dragster, I'd be stuck with a $3,000+ go-kart that I couldn't drive and I'd lose my ass on.

  The local circle track kids league thing has a yearly "try it" day, which he had lots of fun at, but again, that's a steep investment for something I can't use if he ditches it. A crx.....different ballgame.

Accept him for who he is, dont force him to be a closet ricer like yourself, you were so close to convincing yourself shaved moldings make you faster, before we bashed you back into the closet.  Its okay steve, you can come out, we know you're a round eye ricer

Yeah Steve. Listen to this Ann Curry look-a-like, self hating, racially confused, yellow midget. His life is a poster for success!. :yes:

Great way of motivating him, Steve!! :yes:

My son wants a Baja Bug which I hope to build in the near future.

sucks for your daughter, her father thinks that women can't work on cars or have fun driving them.


Did you make some gay-assed, heart felt post about keeping people's daughters out of it hot pocket boy? Who has it worst? His daughter, or yours, because daddy doesn't work, surf the net, and mommy shows strange men her giny for a dollar store shopping spree.  :?:

I agree, they can put seatcovers and steering wheel cover without almost any problem.

The day I'll see my daughter with transmission on one shoulder and a d16 on the other I'll be proud of her.

Not surprising that a girl from Canadia would be able to do that. She'd have to be built like a lumberjack to be able to pull off that feat

and it's still bad ass for a 4th grader.

What the hell genius school did you go to that 7 year olds were in 4th grade?  :P
