Whoa, a kids summer camp with a muscle car and hot rod plan?


Campers learn about the general upkeep required to maintain a healthy vehicle: from changing oil and tires to checking and refilling fluids and minor quick fixes.

This program all started with restoring a 1971 Plymouth Roadrunner! When we first picked up this car, it did not run and looked awful! After a few summers, we had her purring and it even passed a New York State inspection! Each year we tackled a different part of the car whether it was the body, the engine or the interior. The Roadrunner is now the summer mission to put the car back together once the paint sets.

They also have a 1991 Jeep Wrangler campers love riding through the woods which often gets stuck, creating a learning moment about team work, winching, and challenges to overcome. This summer the Mangler will need some maintenance and a few upgrades to the suspension.
