Awesome job on the firebird ... I'm hoping that if a kid has some sweat equity into his first car he might be a little less inclined to tear it up like say the old family beater . Any truth to this or am I kidding myself.
So far so good Stan , I know I'm having fun working with him too ... and it's easier on the knees than paintball and he just kicks my but at video games .

You have a good plan. Not kidding yourself.
He MAY still do something foolish. But he will understand the limitations of the car much better and be more likely to survive. New car insulate most uneducated drivers too much form the environment IMO and cause a lot of accidents.
I speak from experience with my son's car that we built.
