Lots of plans for this and I'm not sure who is more excited.

1st - 5 lug swap

Got a new radiator and fan setup to replace and just get it running good for right now. We've got a Cervini's stalker kit for it as well. I'll be updating this thread with videos etc.

17. He loves cars but has been involved more with sports to want to get his hands this dirty.

Thats a great car to start with. Should be fun. I have a daughter that I tried to make a boy with cars. She kept her pronoun luckily.

Great age. Start with simple fixes where the finished result can be realized. Share and encourage the victory, moving on to the next item. He will be full blown car nut before you know it.

Exactly. He does already love cars but hasn't really built anything yet. We'll get the suspension swap finished this week.

Have him be the lead photographer for the build thread following your progress. This way he needs to understand what is going on with each step.
