Needless to say when the throwout bearing explodes again I am making him buy the new one! lol moral of the story is fathers can be hard on shit. But then again so can we
Haha, thanks for the input. Too bad my father isn't really a "Car Guy". He knows how to drive them, put gas in it and change the oil. I'd like to break him into being an enthusiast but he has his own hobbies such as carpentry and a little bit of metal working. Maybe I should get him to build me an arm-rest in the FRS?
