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.

    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 😊😊

    Hey Derek I want to say thank you for teaching your boys the way you do. I lost my Dad a year and a half ago due to a stroke. This video brought back so many great memories for me seeing Bentley in the engine bay. You are doing them a great thing by teaching them how to wrench on things. They will never forget the time they spent doing it. You are a great person and father and I absolutely love all your content. Don't change a thing.

    All your boys are so well behaved and polite but that little human is something else! Been watching you for a while now and out of all the builds on the channel, the best thing you have built and will ever build is, the bond you seem to have with the entire family! They all seem to just jump in to be a part of this ride that youtube is taking you on!

    I would recommend to rebuild every time. 1) I'm the one rebuilding. I have confidence in my own work. 2) Commonly its cheaper to rebuild it yourself instead of buying a crate. 3) The boys would never forget. I am 48 years old and to this day I remember rebuilding a Ford 390 V8 with my Dad when I was 13.

    My stepdad was just like you, Derek... and I learned sooooo much from him. I have 3 sons now, and all 3 know the basics under a hood, with one of them (and his best friend) being pretty decent wrench tossers. 😁 As fathers, we are not only passing on knowledge, but I feel we are teaching them values and making sure they won't get stranded out in the boonies someday. God Bless you, brother- we are raising MEN, not video gamers.

I'm doing my best to raise my kiddos the same. My youngest just started auto tech school through the local high school which makes me one proud mama.

    This video reminds me of my childhood. My dad owned a shop in aberdeen, md for 40 years. I had my first car at 14, i picked it out with his help. A 69 mustang, 302 automatic. We worked on it so it was ready to drive by the time i was 16. Looking back i wanted loud exhaust, cams.. but i know now he was trying to keep me from trouble. Even still i had one of the coolest cars in the parking lot. I miss him a lot. He died in my early 20s way to young at 67. He taught me a lot. I think a lot of my work ethic and my lil success in life is due to him. Goodnight, Mr. Derek. Big fan here

    Derek and Jessica you guy are awesome. When I get a new notification about a video I watch it right away. The boys are fortunate that they have parents that teach and include them in everything. I watched a video just yesterday and a archer in Wyoming taught his 10 year old daughter to drive a flatbed pulling a long hay wagon in the fields collecting the cut bales. Parents are so quick to assume their children aren’t old enough to do certain things. Not true. I’m a corporate pilot and teaching my 17 year old daughter to fly a jet. She got her pilots license in a Cessna 172 and is working hard learning to fly a more difficult airframe with hopes to be an Air Force or Navy pilot. Keep up the awesome job and Bentley I can wait to see your truck when you put all your finishing touches on it. Have a great weekend ! 🏁🇺🇸

You are setting him up for a great future wrenching with you and gaining confidence in his own capabilities. This is a bonus for all of your viewing audience. Honestly the best channel on RUclips hand's down. As always keep up the great work and Yes I would enjoy seeing Bentley tearing into the old motor with you and finding out if it's a boat anchor or something that's worth rebuilding. He's a lucky little guy and following in your footsteps. This was a really fun video.
