my 17 yr old son and i went out for a little cruise in the 67 the other day, after we got out on a nice country road i pulled over and let him take the wheel , he was all smiles , i even let him get on it a few times, well he ended putting about 50 miles on it and now he understands our passion for these "old cars" as he calls them.
He said you actually have to drive one to appreciate it.
He thought his friends Honda was fast and sounded good till he got to drive the Camaro , he also said it makes you feel " bad ass" when your driving it :thumbsup:

I told him i plan on giving it to him.......the moment i drop dead, till then i will let him behind the wheel once and a while just to keep that feeling alive....

I have one going with my son ... I should post the pictures of him when he was under the RS Z cleaning the crud off the sub frame... he looks like one of the chimney sweeps in the movie Mary Poppins :)

My daughter is 8. She gets mine the moment I drop dead as well. She has started earning it and can't wait till it's on the road. She helps sand and hold parts being bolted on and has no problem getting dirty.:hurray:
