The first car we got my oldest son was a '77 Firebird Formula with a 455ci engine. The second was a Datsun 240Z with 3 Webers and the third was a Geo Metro convertible. The only one he wrecked was the Metro.
Now, almost twenty yrs later, I hear stories about 125mph on a two-lane blacktop north of town in the Firebird. Fortunately he survived it all, probably no thanks to me.
I look back on it and say to myself, what was I thinking?
