Teenagers / Classic Cars ??

I think teenagers need to be started in old cars. back when i was in school my first vehicle was a 70 ford with a 302. plenty of power, BUT, no power steering. all my friends got camaros, mustangs, and other newer sports cars and hot rodded them and most wrecked within two weeks of getting their licence for showing off for their friends.
with the older ford, no power steering, no power brakes, its hard to hot rod something that takes ur concentration to control to begin with. when it rained the drum brakes would lock sometimes forcing me to have to be able to control a skidding truck.

now i did learn how to control this truck and make it do anything i wanted, but i also had to learn the road and perfect that truck before i could. otherwise u send a teenager out in a vehicle that is very easy to drive, got their friends with them, not paying attention and have a wreck.


im not saying give a teen a peice of junk thats unsafe, just one of the old ones that are not as easy to drive as the new cars to learn on.
