Took the Dart to show and tell

I had the opportunity to take the Dart to A Vo-Tech school yesterday and talk to a couple classes of students about the car, the car hobby, and their interests. I was pleased that a large portion of the class was interested in the car and the car hobby. A few in the class were obviously there because they thought it would be an opportunity to cruise through a class with little effort. Sadly for them the teacher in the class, Mr. Frank Adkins is making sure that all the students take a good understanding of the class with them when they leave. Several of these students will go on the be ASE certified tech's while others will use what they learned to enjoy the car hobby while doing something different for a career. All will be able to understand what is going on with the vehicle they are driving.

I am posting this here because the Dart was involved and I like to think this type of participation in the Muscle car hobby will help perpetuate the interest we all share in our cars.

Are you doing anything to bring future generations into the hobby? Is there a neighborhood kid that might like to ride along with you to a car show? Are there any young guys working on a car/project in your area that you could mentor? Even loaning some tools to a kid to help for the day will make a huge difference. Take a few minutes to look around for family or friends that you could include while working on the car or going to an event in your area.
