    What an awesome project! By all means build it with power steering and A/C. It helps a bit with this heat, but you can add a soft top and be fairly comfortable. You can make it plenty quiet with a mild 302. Come up with a way to restrict the throttle when she drives it. I don't see it being any more dangerous than any other car in it's size. Take advantage of the next few years with her. She'll be grown and gone before you blink. I live in Spicewood, just west of Austin. If you ever get up this way I'd be glad to take you for a ride.

    As far as insurance you are going to have to address that anyway. I raised a bunch of kids and always bought them a cheap car that carried liability only. Then they could drive any car I owned since they were listed on my policy. That was with State Farm in Texas.
