Personally, I would hope my Kids keep my rides and I really wouldn't care if they made changes to them in the future. I've seen posts where someone inherited a Dads car and was going to either keep it just as it was as a tribute, or keep it but make changes to suit them. I think either way is fine.

I have a friend that has quite a collection, has three boys and they dont want anything to do with it. I feel for him. I have 2 boys, a 11yr old and a 14 yr old. My 11 yr old is the one one that a car junky, the 14 yr old car nothing about it So I guess my 11 yr old gets my stuff unless he's doing wrong then I told him I would sell them then I was hopeing they would get my diease

Sometimes our "disease" comes later in our Kids lives. Don was always a car nut but Dan wasn't so much when he was younger.........more into fishing and other stuff. When he got in his mid teens he started taking an interest in cars and now he is knee deep in them. I apologize to my Kids all the time for not being a golfer............this car hobby is expensive, dirty, hard work, and you are forever cutting or burning yourself.

Hang in there, your other Son might start tinkering too sooner or later.
