I took my three year old to a car show today, and we brought the Red Wagon I built for him for Christmas for him to cruise around in. The organizers were so impressed with it that they awarded him the Under 21 Class trophy!! (And he was made an Honorary Member of The Generators, a local "invitation-only" car club!)

That is awesome! It's so great to see you get your son involved in something you are passionate about. My son is 9 months old. When he was like 3 weeks old, I bought him a 1972 Indian JC-54 junior motorcross bike. It needs slight restoration, but what a find! It runs and drives, it just has aging issues. I call it "character".

Re tats, because his momma would cut mine off with a cleaver. ;^) However, one time at a street fair there was a "face painting booth", where he insisted on having a dragon painted on the length of his arm instead of some goofy crap on his face. He walked around with this tee shirt sleeve rolled up like Captain Badass all day, and wouldn't let us wash it off for a week.

Asa, the little guy from my second marriage, is a complete Wild Man; he goes *****-Out all the time. He's car-crazy, loves the Foo Fighters (he's decided that he IS Pat Smear), plays drums amazingly well, flirts with the Bettys and insists on riding in every hot rod that comes through my shop. He's a funny little guy with *strong* opinions and a big personality. Like I said before, I have a feeling that he's going to be Trouble, which I'm sure is some Karmic Payback for my youth.

That is not what I expected you to look like, given the username and pony accoutrements. Now I am remembering that you had the cool hotrod transporter.
Props for building a cool-*** wagon and spending quality time with your son while getting him exposed to the car culture. More pictures of the wagon and/or the wagon with some Bettys.

Joe Perez gave me the My Little Pony avatar in a brutal case of Avatarring and Feathering in another thread here, after I referred to some douchenozzle as "Brony"... I thought it was funny, so I left it that way. (I think it's locked anyway..)

This thread has secondary delivery. I completely skipped that other suspension thread when it was posted and realize I missed out.
However, I will back you up if you want to protest the pony avatar now. I gave up trying to take a stand against cats (murderous little psychopaths) but I am still fighting the ever-encroaching ponyism.
Get a better picture of the wagon (without the admittedly cool kid in it) and I'll start a letter-writing campaign to get your avatar un-ponied and possibly have your user title changed to reflect your hot-rod wagon fabrication expertise. I'm not above bribing the moderation crew.
