A lifelong dream came to pass last weekend for Cameron (and Chris). It was PINEWOOD DERBY time! Because of our move last year, Cameron missed what would have been his first cub scout pinewood derby. This year his mom has some influence in primary and made sure he wouldn't miss another year.....
This is the competition-

Cameron's car is the yellow one, made to look like "Bumble bee" from the movie "Transformers."


That's all paint, no decals on this cool car!

All of the scouts received a trophy and although "Bumble bee" didn't pull off a first place win, we had a great time and think Cameron's car looked awesome.
Cameron and his dad had fun making the car and are already talking about next year's race.

Here are some pictures of another project that is finally complete after about 2 years...

Chris worked really hard and put a new engine (400 big block) into the truck that used to belong to his Grandpa Jack.

It is fast and LOUD and road worthy.
It even got a new exhaust system-
And I'm no expert, but I think that old truck has turned out pretty cool!

Truck looks cool too.
Good choice Cameron! My pinewood derby car was a bumblebee too.
Chris, want to make my '87 look that good?
Cool looking car. I can just imagine how fun that was for those two car lovers.
What? Chris likes to restore old trucks!?! Ha ha just kidding. Look great! Also Camerons car rocks! I think it looks just like the transformer one...better hide it from Jesse!
I'm with Josh - What is the deal. The car looks sweet, but it's a CHEVY!
