I admire his enthusiasm, but...

...question his grasp on reality.

I don't mean to sound mean, and hopefully it works out for the young man. On Facebook I joined groups for muscle cars and mopar in general. The other day a young man posted a question on the best way to build a 700hp 440. Numerous posters replied, some with good advice. However, nothing was stated about what car or other mods done to it to handle 700 ponies or even what trans. When queried about it, we find out he is 16, has been saving and has 5000, no car but hopes to get a 68-70 charger to put the motor in.

I am happy to see a young person interested in the hobby, or sickness depending on how you look at it. I didn't have the heart to inject the reality that to build the car he wants will take at least 5x what he has.

Here is to dreams and their possibilities...somet I mes they come true. Determination, dedication, and hard work.
