If you can get him started young like my father did me he will be able to work under the dash with ease hopefully fixing all of the wiring problems before he grows up and can't fit anymore.

Hey everyone. Thanks for all the nice comments and mom ( Chrissy ) is doing great. She was lucky and only had a 4 hour labor. Doc did'nt make it in time and i almost missed it myself by 20 minutes. She was a trooper and is more beat now than after the birth.
I will be bringing him to the next outing. Got to start them out young.

Huge congrats on your cute baby! I have one piece of advice - don't make the mistake I did in 1985 when I sold my 1981 Spider that I purchased new (only 20,000 miles on it when I sold it). I sold it because it was "impractical". It took me almost 20 years before I bought another Spider. BIG mistake.

Glad to hear mom is doing well.
