How To Keep A Couple Of 15 Y/o's Busy

Give em a Comanche to work on! Only way to learn is to jump on in.

Haha, good job.  If you want more work out of em, just promise them an MJ of their own provided they show they can maintain one properly.  Then you get a few years of free labor out of em.  Might as well throw some yard work in the mix too.

yep worked with both of our kids --- the daughter is very glad, now that she is divorced :thumbsup:

[Bornindesert]

Exactly haha. They dropped the gas tank, got it drained and cleaned up...pulled all the bed bolts, not easy stuff. They're good kids and will be driving Jeeps someday soon. Imprint them while they're young.

My family's first XJ.  Got me into cars, into Jeeps.  Had my parents not bought this when they did, I probably would not have ever cared what a Comanche was.

 

I was 7 when this picture was taken(as was the XJ).

 

 

...and shortly after I started driving.

That's too funny! The Jeeps multiplied haha

started working on a 91 escort back when I was 13.  put about $300 worth of parts in it and I never got to drive it because some nosy neighbors could see it from the very corner of their property line which was actually in my driveway and I couldnt find a way to get the lien released from the title (was my moms old car) because the company went out of business in 94.

 

been working on cars ever since.

 

genovast: where in wisconsin did you live?

I got my MJ when I was 15. It's a journey to fix one up, especially if it doesn't run. At least they got to keep their dirt bike, I had to sell mine to buy all the parts I needed. It's been the greatest learning experience I've ever encountered so far.
