    Even though this deals with a little newer car (65) I think we can all relate to the emotion and sentimentality in this video. :)

    Thats bad***! As someone who has grown up in a chevy household, with two grandpas, a grandma and even a dad who has worked and retired from GM that will definately get you.

    Sure did **** to see them have to get bailed out. Maybe someday I will see them be the power hosue they used to be.

    I lost my father this spring so this video really is a tear jerker for me. I have his car sitting in my garage just waiting for me to bring it back to its former glory. As soon as my car is finished I will get that one like I remember it years ago when he drove it. I think of him every time I look at that car. It's funny how to some people these are "just cars" but to people like me they are so much more.

    Cool story. Like most I remember all of our cars growing up and I loved them because I've been a car guy since I was a kid. He's talking about his brother having to hold on while they went around turns etc...I'm hoping to p*** those kinds of memories on to my kids. So they can say...Hey Dad remember when...:)

    They are more than cars to me as they are to everyone on here.
