Hey Tom,
I can see Arkus is very mobile, maybe some child proof cabinet hardware and electrical outlet safety covers are upcoming projects.
I had to install a few items for our grand daughter now that she is walking and very curious. My first experience with electricity was the day I stuck a hair pin into a wall outlet, it got hot really fast.

That Oregon plate would really look great on a white 64 Plymouth Fury
2dr post. I was so surprised to see your post about the Plymouth a few days after we saw it come into Waid's store...Jay

Hey Jay I almost purchased that Fury! I was very close! We have all the electrical plugs covered, working on getting all the cabinets locked down. My son is very mobile now, he is very fast and his strength has increased by a huge amount in the last three months.

I'm sure you have learned that when he is quiet you better see what he is into. Did your father leave the back covers off the TV sets that you had around the house when you were growing up? Those vacuum tube power supplies and voltage regulators were really neat space heaters.

The widebody kit looks good, but I think it needs a spoiler..and some Z06 sways..
He sure looks like it could be a job just keeping up..Best you you three..

State of Oregon will be happy to know he is good until 2011!

When are you going to teach him how to use the buffer?

Cool Picture!

Funny that you mentioned widebody kit, I tried and tried to find a Corvette walker, would you beleive that there wasn't one to be found any where. I did find one that resembled a Viper but that wouldn't do it

Stock exhaust or aftermarket? Probably doesn't pass emissions test yet.

____________

Drivers and vehicles of this age typically don't pass emissions, the sniffer test gives a clue but the visual diaper exam is a give away especially for mods.

Tom, Arkus looks like he's thriving, great to see! Had a blast at the track this season, can't say enough about all the compliments I had.

Highly modified, no need to pass emissions, I have his scotter registered outside the DEQ boundaries

That's great! I am happy that everything turned out great with the package, it was a lot of work but it all works well.
