Yep, The Saturday Evening Post was the first thing I thought when I saw the picture. Nice picture.

I remember the first time my daughter helped me with the Fordor. The project that day was cleaning and re-greasing the front wheel bearings.

I talked her through it. Loosen lug nuts, put car up on jack stands, finish taking off lug nuts, remove dust cap, remove cotter pin, loosen and remove axle nut-all this done by her without help.

I then instructed her to grab the brake drum and pull. Note-she was sitting on the concrete with her legs crossed. After pulling off the brake drum, she tilted the drum towards her and a greasy wheel bearing fell in her lap. The look on her face - PRICELESS!
