[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son would love to work on cars but we are not buying him one of his own and I am not letting him tinker around with ours. Instead, he does all sorts of work and modifications on bikes and has since he was little and outgrew his. More cost effective and the old bikes and parts can fit in our garage. He can buy a part he wants for much less than parts he would need to rebuild a car. [/quote] You might think about 'small engine repair' - like lawn mowers, weed wackers, etc. That's how my brothers' started and it's what my older DS (15) is doing. DS is now working on a chipper/shredder I got off Craigslist. The principals of a combustion engine are the same across most engines and it's a lot cheaper than buying a car! There seems to be a YouTube video to repair just about anything. [/quote]
