Yes some of us are blessed. Mine has helped put rings on pistons, pump the brakes to help bleed them,handed wrenches to me and done numous other things that I needed help with.  Help install engines.  I have a 66 Valiant that I am going to fix up for her.  She will end up helping me on that.  Guess I got lucky.  Gary
