Though I'm highly skilled with most things mechanical, especially auto related, my father should stay away from all things involving more than one moving part!!!! He taught me every thing I know about my love of cars and racing, but he has no skillz!!!! NONE!!!! ZERO!! And growing up we had them all: MGs, Alfas, Porsches, Healeys, Triumphs VWs, Fiats, Volvos, et all! His "tool kit" consisted of a butter knife and a rusty pair of pliers! Growing up, the household motto was learn to live without, when something broke!!! I have no idea where I developed my love of tools and doing things the right right way, the first time, but it wasn't from him!!! I love him to death and he's my best friend, but....SHEEESH!!!
