His one buddy is now building a muscle car with his grandfather, and another (also 14) is now working on a 340 duster with his dad. Looks like the three of them will all have stick cars just a couple years from now, and that's a good thing!
The desire is certainly there. I'm 19, and lots of my friends love these cars. One of my oldest friends had a '66 Comet project with his dad (sadly sold before completion), another has a '73 or '74 Charger project with his Dad, I've got my grandfather's toys, and one of my best friends has coveted our Camaro since I met him. When we were six.


So, it's not necessarily that younger kids aren't into them. We just have no hope of affording them at our age unless we're born into a family with them around.

Ain't no fun in viewing your car as an 'investment'. Get out there and beat on it!

WOW, that IROC is beautiful, and I've never seen the stripe delete before. Congrats on the purchase, that's an amazing time capsule.
