welcome! My son and I often work on our cars together. His first car was a 1986 camaro and on the first tuneup I did one side while he did the other.

Probably less than a F-body, mustang or hot ricer. I know when I got my first vette in 84, a 79 it cost 1/2 as much as my 80 z-28 did to insure. The insurance guy said it was cause tons of 25 or less drove z-28's and very few under 35 drove vettes.
