The kids hate the new car

We drove to the track to watch my buddies grudge car run last night so I decided to drive the 68 out there.

They look pretty bored. My youngest grandson (age 9) rode back with me yesterday from the show in Lancaster (pictures coming) in the 54 with the top down and probably 100 degrees. He loved it and said "Popeye this is a cool car". Glad you and them are having a good time.

It great to see them enjoying something like that. 99% of kids there age will only get to ride in some late model SUV with a DVD player for the added fun. For your grandson and my kids the ride IS the fun.

I believe the interior and underside may be soda blasted and treated with lizard skin inside and out. I was going to stop by Friday on the way home to pick up our dash, but could not get a hold of him. I'll post a picture of this weekends progress on the other thread. Thanks for asking.
