Teenagers / Classic Cars ??

Let me start off by saying that I am 19, and this is from what I have seen and experienced. A lot of teens in my area wrecked their first cars. So I would be afraid of giving a teen a vehicle like a Lil Red Express, due to the rarity of it, or a duster/dart. Unless she is real familiar with carb. engines you might want to lean to fuel injected. I drove my dads 78 truck a few times, and the carb would heat soak on me and if I wasn't familiar with it I probably would have given up. Also a lot of teens in my area had no clue how hard it was to get a car, or how lucky they were to have their parents provide one to them, and wouldn't take care of them. Have you thought about getting her something else and then working on the dart/duster together to show her how much work is involved in a vehicle. I know that helping my dad fix up his 78 truck made me think twice about mashing on it because I didnt want to damage it in any way.
