Emily, it's easy to see you got your looks, personality, and that gorgeous smile directly from your mother !

[@rogermasse864]

My 73 was one of my favorite memories of being a young adult! The freedom and the connection to the road is unforgettable!! Thank you!!♥️

[@rogersattler4423]

The smile on your mom's face when you delivered the MG to her was just so great. The "Little Dandy" will be loved.

[@gtomadness0433]

I kept watching Emily's face in the camera like "look how happy she is!!"

[@shanesanko1408]

Your Mom's joy was so great brought her back to her school days her excitement was awesome great job guys

[@chappy5538]

Glad to see you got the mg going that made your mom so happy she is so nice.

[@heythere135]

I love the family aspect of this one. Nice seeing mom and the grandparents. So much love and joy brought to this family with one car!

[@gtuttle4]

Your mom is remembering back in the good old days! I'm 70 and do the same thing, especially when hearing 70's music!

[@doughamm5590]

Awesome y'all got momma back on the road. And that smile just says it all how she feels.

[@squathi]

I love how you show your mom such love and respect, and you have FUN together. Your nieces will learn much from you.

[@wagonmaster1974]

My foray into British Leyland's finest was the Triumph Spitfire. Through the years, I've owned five Spits and a GT6. They are the Midget's cousin. Discovering Weber carbs and Canon manifolds was life changing! You have made your mother and grandfather very happy. This little Midget is so much more than just a car. Love seeing your mom's face light up like a schoolgirl. Sweet. Thank you both for being true to your mother's automotive loves. Godspeed!

[@wesfagin6236]

great job Aaron, nice to see big smiles on Emils and moms face . Yall amaze me

[@rogerraff6823]

I love the obvious love you both have for Emily’s mom, much respect!

[@richardhill6125]

Loving this MG stuff. My first car (in early 69) was a 56 MGA my Dad found cheap. I was barely 16 and loved it. it wasn't pretty but I didn't care. Fast forward to today...I picked up a pretty clean 77 MGB from a neighbor a few months ago and am going through the checking stuff out phase and working on getting it road worthy. I'm turning 70 next Tuesday and hopefully that will also be it's first true road test!. I love your videos and wish I had a shop like yours, but mine is pretty much under a canopy and hope it isn't too windy. Keep the videos coming and tell your Mom and Grandpa thanks for being MG nuts...we must be distantly related somewhere down the line :) Cruising in Colorado!

[@mikeybhoutex]

Your mom was beamin' with happy. Done good, Emily and Aaron!

[@genecramer1522]

[@charlesdalton985]

Great job and gift for your mom! Seeing your grandfather’s reaction was priceless as well. And Evaporust - love that stuff! Thanks for sharing.

[@douglasjordan7272]

Loving your tiny Midget series. I just purchased a 1975 Midget that needs some tender loving care. I can't tell you how much your videos have already helped me understand how I need to do some of the work that needs done, especially the top and seats. Thank you!

[@bobbolieu9013]

It was pretty neat seeing the smile on your mother's face. So much joy

[@BlackSolstice07]

Seeing the excitement of your mom and grandparents is the most heartwarming thing I've ever seen on KZbin. It brought tears to this old crusty 69year-old guy!

[@jimbranch7312]

That joy is priceless. Wonderful how a car can make you feel like a teen again.

I get so tickled at your mom driving the Midget. She is totally transformed back to 16 years old. She’s precious.

[@flyingsparksgarage]

She sure is!!! Dude, she drives Dandy just about every day!!!! She loves her!!

I've been told I need to soak my GTO in it now lol 🤣🤣

[@jasonmorales1846]

If you have a bunch of rusty stuff to clean I do recommend this stuff.I also have some stuff called Dr. X and if you leave parts in that one too long it will actually destroy the metal.Learned the hard way on that.

[@jeremyarchuleta7731]

aww that smile from your mom was priceless

[@fastjp72]

Emily you and your mom so happy together having fun makes me happy as well, great times!😁👊

[@bradnewby5695]

It's cool to see you hangin with Momma, she's diggin that MG 👍

[@leemorgan9203]

Oh my! Thank you for sharing 3 generations of smiles! Isn't it interesting to see the similarities of the generations: Grandpa & Aaron, Grandma, Mom and Emily! Fun ... 108* oh the song by Arrow "Hot Hot Hot" Thank you for putting smile on my face!!

[@Rmasters33]

If the piece you're trying to remove is square often it will be a 1/4", 3/8th, or equivalent metric. Take either and put a hex drive socket (1/4" for example) so the 1/4" is reversed and the end normally in the ratchet is on the piece. Then get whatever bit-sized socket you've chosen and put it on the reversed bit. I used this to free up the lube hole in a Jeep steering gear.

[@birdmandavej]

Your mom’s beautiful smile made that hard work totally worth it. ;)

[@larrybomber83]

Lot of work, but the look on your Mom's face: Priceless!

[@billyhaddock5540]

Congrats Lady's on ur Mom's first drive in the Little Dandy. She is all Smiles..

[@lloydryan7716]

A really great video. Your Mom was all the way back in high school. It was so much fun watching the two of you buzz around town. I loved your grandpa's remarks about three MGs.

[@3400Modified]

Evapo-Rust in an ultrasonic cleaner fixed a one off variable vane turbine housing that was rusted up for my Beretta Concept car. Stuff is amazing.

[@ddcraun]

Your mom is the BEST! She is truly just loving that little gokart of a car and totally gets what it is all about.

[@Stahodad]

..nice job working with the parts you had. It takes a lot to walk away and think about things but usually it pays off, even if you just take an early lunch break..and things go better when you're not hungry too. 😉

[@benvanderkinter2204]

Awesome you get to be a part of bringing so much joy to your mother. She is truly loving every minute of the time she spent in that car and with her daughter. 😊

[@RENEGADEX800]

Your mom was so happy!

[@rsvp-realscalevehiclesproj6965]

That's impressive!! Did someone say a new sponsor?!? 👍😀👍 The new plates for the MG - EVAPRST!! 🤪😀🤪

[@zymmer4]

for stuff like the bearing install..I always put the bearing in the freezer for a half day or so..use a propane torch to warm up the housing..( some pple put the housing in the oven @ 350)..I did once..Mrs. mine..cared not for the cloud of stinky, oily housing in her kitchen..lol..cold bearing, warm housing..no pounding..just drop in the bearing..tap with non maring tool to test the seat..done.

[@outlet6989]

Can I sure relate with your husband(?). He was sitting on that porch in his shorts. When I noticed the dirt on his knees, I had to say, "Now, there is a true DIYer."

[@DWilliams-ce8nb]

A '57 MGA was the first car I owned. It was a beater (but had a newly rebuilt engine). Ugly and rusty but I loved it. Great to see your mom's little MG get a new lease on life!

[@mikemiraglia7469]

Very cool!! YAY the MG!!! You two ladies are beauties!!! Take care !! Mike

[@bobbolieu9013]

MG's are such a fun ride! Making turns in them are a blast, even at 15 mph.

[@millcrafters]

MG's have style. They were responsible for the birth of GM"s Corvette. The MG's and racoon coats were permeating the college campuses. It was all the rage. I used to work on them back in my early shop days. The problems were the slave and master cylinders in the clutch and brakes. The Lucas wiring system had connectors made out of aluminum which used to tarnish, and required periodic cleaning. The rockers and floor boards use to rust out, and especially under the battery boxes under the MGB. If you tune them up you need to do the whole thing, and not just part because each part was interdependent upon the other including valve adjustment, removal of the top of the SU carb, carb cleaner, and then a coating of fine machine oil, as well as putting some in the removable piston from the top.

[@foomanfoo8199]

Perma-grin on your mom’s face. …priceless. 👍🏻

[@markbrown6236]

Hanging out with mom driving the freshly fixed MG, that;s a win.

[@stephenhotzjustdriveit]

Glad to see your mom happy.

[@marymoss5042]

God bless y'all for not giving up on the MG. You are living proof of the American attitude that got us through WWII, and will get us through the current explosion of the US dollar, the disaster with the Keystone Pipeline cutoff, starving the American newborn baby citizens to feed the illegal aliens, greed grabbing of the Dakota lands, American farmers and ranchers being driven into nonexistence. We will survive. Never give up.

[@pminoregon9072]

Congratulations! Also, thank you for using thread sealant instead of teflon tape, that tape stuff comes off and gums things up!

[@tonybastien3692]

After having so much trouble with the brakes it was so nice to see your moms face lite up this was one of your best videos that I have watched ,your mom seems like a very spirited lady hope she has many more years of driving the MG. Thank you for sharing.

[@steveash9831]

Hey Y'all. I worked in a machine shop, and learned that to remove rusty bolts, heat it up and rub a plain old candle on it. The melted wax gets drawn into the threads, and well-ah! It has never failed me! It helps to say... "Hocus pocus", as you apply force to it. Ha ha!

[@ericwithac2919]

If everybody could be as happy as you and Aaron made your Mom, the world would be a better place!

[@garywillis6176]

That car was made for the dog, he looks good! The car sounds good those little engines sound good. We didn't wear seat belts back in the day, Miracle any of us lived.

[@RichardMLowe]

@@flyingsparksgarage what do you know about "Knocking on Wood" 🤣🤣✌🏻🇺🇸

[@user-gt6fs2cl5b]

I Watched your video when you changed the oil in your boat(drill pump). I have a manual pump that pumps all the old oil out I 3-5 minutes. It pumps like a bicycle pump. After 4-5 pumps, it works as a siphon. Much less frustrating than the “slow” drill pump. Best, Glen in Pensacola…

[@Danman1972]

Great that you have that and work on it for you Mom.... Also, that you guys can all live close. Also, for the copper washers you can replace them or in a pinch just heat them with a torch to make them soft again. They will seal up.

[@vicswanby454]

Great work Aaron LOL it all paid off in the smiles in those two cute little ladies making memories and reliving old ones you little lady are living the dream grandparents on the same property family is very important and to see how closely kept everything appears to be kudos to you guys wouldn't mind seeing Grandpa take a rip with your mom. Keep up the good work you guys look forward to the next videos.

Love the look on moms face when she seen the car is great! Now just one thing PLEASE put a better muffler on the thing!! Can't wait to see the next video!

[@terrytolar1749]

Did the brakes on my Silverado over the weekend. Haven't seen anyone else do this, but I put a ratchet strap around the shoes to hold them steady while I used vice-grips to install the springs. So much easier!

[@larrycleeton]

Can't believe you've only just now discovered the magic of Evaporust. Also get yourself some old school brake spring tools.

[@refsa01]

So proud of you Emily, your whole family is so sweet..from San Antonio, TX
