Default My car=fixed... My dad=kick ***!!!

I rear ended an explorer the other week, and brought my car home for repairs. I got an estimate and it was to be at least $3,076. Well my father decided to take a look at it and I took his car back to miami for the week. $1,000 later and alot of sweat each evening on my dad's part and my car looks as good as new.
He took out the radiator core support, welded the new one in, straightened a bunch of things here and there, got a new bumper, and new light housing, and fiberglassed the frame on the underside of my CF hood. He just finished today (his birthday) and I am happier than I can explain.

to kick *** do it yourself dad's... Especially this Sunday!

I wish my dad could still do those kind of things.

The older I get, the more I appreciate the fact that my parents are the greatest blessing in my life.

Being an old timer, the best gift you can give a Dad is your time, your respect and your thanks. You have shown him your respect, show him your Honda-Tech post and go spend some time with him doing something he likes to do. He will remember it forever!

BigMoose

What a cool dad. My dad had his birthday 6-12 and we're celebrating this weekend with father's day. Happy late birthday to your dad.

My dad isn't experienced in the body department, but he's gonna be the one building my block and port and polish my head. Hooray for cool dads!!

to cool dads
my dad helped me install several mods - and use his tools!


helping install type-r sway bar on my old integra

I decided the best gift for fathers day was a day of my labor. He has a landscaping/lawn business so I'm going to break a sweat for once and help him for a whole day.
