Dad was not much of a mechanic. Not a good enough one to be much of a teacher anyways. When I tore my first engine down (as a teen), I didn't know much about how an engine really worked. But the engine I did tear apart, really did need it in order for it to be fixed. And some how I got the whole fix/repair like new thing, stamped in my brain. Along with doing things by the book. You know, the funny thing is, I didn't learn the (only fix what's wrong) thing untill later when I turned wrenches for a living and found that most customers just wanted fixed. Also learned about the same time to do things the easiest way possible, and don't tear something apart more than what you have to. And I found that books will often tell you that this or that needs taken off in order to get to this, when its not nescisary. An experienced mechanic can adjust the procedure to thier ability. I had alot of trouble in the beginning, doing things in the alotted shop time. After I learned what I mentioned, I was close to alotted shop time doing most things, and even under on a few things.

It wasn't to show off my restoration skills (though I had tried my hand at a couple of old motorcycles in my teens and if I recall correctly, those old motorcycles were sold in boxes about one quarter finished). It wasn't to relive memories of Grampa, Dad or myself out on the back 40 nursing the Farmall pulling too many b
