The previous owner of my 89 taught both of her kids to drive in what is now
my car.

Lucky for me, there was a recently installed clutch in the car...

I don't think the SHO clutch and trans. are all that fragile so it should do
OK.  You can teach him yourself so he doesn't do anything that will really
damage it, such as riding the clutch or shifting improperly.
