Grrrrr, . . . . .
You sure you want to set this sort of example? 15 years from now she will be seriously breaking some guy's chops - he will not thank you for teaching her how!

Actually I'd have put all the accessories on beforehand, but I spoke with Dan and we thought it best to do the engine fit without all the stuff on it but in retrospect, I should have put it all on since there was no front sheetmetal on the truck, and nothing to get in the way.


Besides, I think I found a spacer and a few bolts that will be needed

My 5YO loves working with me in the shop...she likes to "find" things...after a bit she'll get bored..so what I've done was start 8 or 10 nails in the garage door for her to hammer on and leave one of those light duty claw hammers hanging there for her...she hasn't gotten them driven in all the way yet, but hasn't bent any of them over either.
