Short summary

Harry from the hardware store has a mild heart attack as Tim turns 40. Tim is worried and goes off the deep end about getting healthy. The boys give him a Tool Man figure made out of tools, and Jill gets him a ride on a jet (more power!).

The title comes from the optimistic view of life: Life begins at forty.

The first appearance of _Blake Clark (I)_ as Harry, proprietor of a local hardware store, a role he would continue through the end of the series.

When introduced its said they are working on a Chevy 350 even though they are working on Tim's 1966 Ford Mustang and unless he modified it, it has a 289 cubic inch V8. You can also see the distributor is in the front of the carburetor where as a Chevy 350 the distributor is located behind the carb.
