These things are fantastic, good portions too.... maybe they'll open up a place in Canada soon, I can't see them going out of business with how delicious those things are and how competitively priced they are with eating out.

    My dad let me help him work on stuff and then when I got older and had my first car which was a 70 Nova. Every time I'd start to work on it he would miraculously show up so I "Wouldn't Screw It Up". One of my favorite memories with him was when he and my mom came home from a shopping trip and he brought home a set of chrome traction bars for it and he couldn't wait to put them on MY car. So there we were at 11:00 pm laying in the driveway installing a set of traction bars.....lol.

    You are a great Dad Derek! This takes me back to my Dad doing the same thing with me 50 years ago. We were always wrenching on cars, motorcycles, lawnmowers, chainsaws……..plus he taught me building, electrical, plumbing, masonry when I was Bentleys age. He built a garage and an addition on our house and I was his gopher, mason tender and wire puller and pipe cutter. He always took me fishing, taught me to shoot and hunt. He is now in a wheelchair in a nursing home which breaks my heart. We were still hunting together 12 years ago. Watching you and Bentley work on this truck made my eyes well up thinking about days past with my Dad. Enjoy every moment with those boys Derek ( in which you are without a doubt) because in and instant I went from a 12 year old kid to a 60 year old man. Time is fleeting the older you get the quicker it goes. Those boys are going to be good men soon enough and you will be wrenching with your grand children soon. Enjoy the cruise with your wonderful family. God Bless!

    Great father son bonding time!! I lost my father April 2021. We used to work on cars together all the time...he wasn't as nice or patient as Derek is, but him teaching me auto repair has made me a lot of money so far in my lifetime and I've been able to help a lot of people in the meantime. Last year I acquired my father's big block 1967 Cougar, the car he started teaching me auto repair on. I've been tinkering on it since trying to get it back on the road after 10 years of sitting idle. I found out in March of this year that I have a 25 year old son I didn't know I had, he's putting himself through school to becoming an ASE certified mechanic....he even named his son, my grandson, Axel! Can't wait to teach him what I know about cars. Thanks for reminding me of what it was like with dad!

    lost my dad in 2019, he was coming up on 89. my brother and I worked with him on many projects. in his later years he would ask me how i got so smart, and could do all the things i do. i told him it was from him. he let us build projects. helped us and taught us to think outside the box, the greatest dad ever. i got tears watching this as it makes me remember all the shop time with him.

    Great to see the young fella driving the truck. Reminds me of my dad letting me drive his late forties ford anglia up and down the laneways behind our house. It felt like I was at the wheel of the world’s fastest race car. Actually it would be flat out to get up to forty miles an hour down hill with a tail wind but boy I was thrilled and never forgot the smile on dad’s face watching me. That’s a bond that could never be broken so I know how you would both be feeling. He will grow up to be a fine man and mechanic. Cheers Dave from down under 😊😊

You’re a great role model for your boys and I appreciate you showing your viewers not only an entertaining, sometimes comical way of working and saving vehicles but also that family and sharing knowledge to our younger generations are important. Again thank you.

    What a proud moment to see the little ones behind the wheel of their first go get 'er. I didn't have any wrench monkeys, I had princesses and tea parties. Thankfully my youngest would tag along when I went to the store and always had to get a tool while we were there. Now that kid can do her own plumbing and electrical work, and has the tools to get it done.

    Late to the party again since I'm binge watching the older esipodes, but a guy needs to say that the father/son relationship between you and the tiny human there is amazing. I love how eager he is to literally jump in head first and start spiffin' on these old rigs with his Pops. The fact that he ripped it around the field without incident was equally amazing. You're a great Dad, and the learnins and memories you're giving the kids will last a lifetime. We should all be so fortunate. Furthermore and finally, I'm pretty dang fond of that particular rig....hope to see a lot more of it on the channel here.
