Not only do I let people sit in them, I make them come back when they're older to sit in them again!
One of the highlights of the Beater Bee restoration was Neil sitting in the car when it was in the barn find section. Him and his father are photographers. I saw Neil next to the car and insisted he take a seat!
Well, fast forward a few years later during my unveiling and I had Neil sit in it again! And he was no longer a kid, he'd gotten married and had a kid! Man, time just marches on!
These are cars and are meant to be appreciated. Ropes and chains around them don't really help build future fans. But then again, with irresponsible parents, barbed wire sometimes isn't enough to protect from stupidity!
Cheers
Dave
