A 68 anything is a death trap, IMO. I understand your sentiment, but those old cars will get a young driver killed with the quickness.


I had a '62 Buick Skylark and then a '68 Camaro. A 440HP Mustang will get you killed a lot faster.

Make the kid do a disc brake upgrade to the front of the '68 Stang and it has proper seat belts. And have it checked to make sure it's done right. He'll be fine.

If safety is the #1 concern, get him a Volvo.

Having worked on my rides a lot in high school, I appreciated them much more than just have keys to a new car thrown at me. I'll bet you did the same as me when you were that age.

You ever seen a classic car get in a wreck? The new Mustangs are exponentially safer than a 68 anything.
