Am I Being Unreasonable? Original Owner Wants Car Back

Rat Bastid said

He‘s a really good kid. Both of his boys turned out very good.

He is just so inexperienced. So mechanically he‘d be in way over his head.

Plus, I don’t think he has driven anything with more than 200 hp.

I told him to find something and I’d help him with whatever he needs.

Of course, he said “abut that’s not my dads car”. And I told him I understand 100%.

To me, he just wants something that was his dad's. It just happens to be a car. They are not that interested in the car itself. That is a core flaw.

That's a recipe for a car sitting in a garage or just sold in the future when other life priorities happen. Or worse, the kid wrecks car and/or himself with this street-able race car.
