We need to encourage our children in the love of LBC!

That's pretty great, Tim. JClay's right - too many old gray heads at the British car events - the hobby needs young people.

Some of my very best memories of childhood involve helping my Dad keep various Triumphs and Jaguars alive.

You know what I mean. I'd bet the number of Triumph owners who show up even at a big event like VTR who are under age 30 could be counted on one hand.

I'm hoping to follow in your footsteps with my boy in a few more years.

No, his mother won't let me take the ladder out while he's in there. :(

Mine will not help in the garage, but when she turned 16 she wanted to learn how to drive a stick.
