17 year old kid tried to buy my bracket racer :(

The parents would have to be involved in a matter such as that. Back in the day, one of the local dealers had a '68 Camaro (pro street would have been the term in those days) with a built to the hilt 396 4 speed. The car would just about jump a keg . Just a plain nasty machine (even if it was a Chevy lol). The salesman figured it was to big of a liability and refused to sell it to the young guy.

My dad was looking out for me in the late 90's. I was 18 years old and got a lead on a '68 Valiant. The Valiant ended up being a 2dr. post with a hot 383 in it!! Dad told me right quick that I didn't need that. Never even got a halfway fast car till after high school. Looking back, my old man was just looking out for me and any responsible parent should do the same. I do all my playing at the drags. Ok, So I did leave a hazy burnout on a backroad but hey ..no exhibition of speed or nothing like that lolol..
