    That's awesome, almost brought a tear to my eyes. I'm 64 and my 1st mustang at 17 was a 66. Great son you are.

    Very nice video, very emotional. My Dad also drove a 66 and later bought a 67 that was destroyed the night it was brought home. It was hit by a 16 wheeler that jumped off the highway. Thanks for the memories.

    Great video I know how your Dad feels. In July of this year I was able to buy my 67 coup back that I had in high school and my daily driver for 6 years after graduation. I sold it back to the guy I bought it from with the promise that he would call me if he decided to sell it. That was in 1989, unfortunately he passed away last March, his Mom contacted me about the car and I have my car back. It sat under a lean to for 34 years still had the 1990 tag on it. Talk about a flood of memories when my wife and I sat in it that first time. So congratulations to you and your Dad, Enjoy the new memories you make together.

    My Dad bought me my 1st car back in 1983, a 1968 Mustang notchback with a locked up 289 and rusted out floor boards, we swapped it out for a 351W...good memories with Dad.

    The odds of him selling that in California and you finding it 40 miles away from your house in Michigan are astronomical. I bought my '66 in Saginaw on 8/20/1988. This Sunday will be 35 years. It's been stored in my garage undriven since it broke down in 1993 but the same day you were shooting this video mine was finally on a flatbed to an old school mechanic in Farmington. Three days later she woke up with a fresh gas tank, electronic ignition, battery, belts, hoses, fluids, master cylinder, tires and a bumper to bumper safety check. Through hard times I resisted selling and I'm glad I did. This was the second time I gave that car to myself for my birthday - the first time I was 23 and now I'm 58. Congrats on finding her.

    What an amazing story. I found my 67 fastback I sold 35 years ago. But he wants to much money for it. Your parents raised you right. Not all people would do something like this for thier parents. I know my kids wouldn't. Your an amazing person on the inside for doing this.

    I am a former 1965 Mustang owner from 1972 (Chicago area - it was straight 6 cyl) - I used to have that car kept it for three year before trading it for a new Chevy Malibu - My son was looking at the old pictures of me and Mustang - First word came out of his mouth "Why did you sell it dad" - your story have touched my heart because my son is 39 yr old - some similarity here & this literally gave teary eyes - God Bless you son.

    Just when you needed something, to remind you it's gonna be a good day! Thank you brother for sharing your experience and giving back to your dad on something that he would have no way to emotionally give back. This is a true American Muscle Mustang Story. This is what that PONY IS ALL ABOUT! My hats off to you brother! And keep these Ponys moving! This Mustang County Baby!

    Love this story - I wonder where the two '66s (hardtop and convertible) I owned in years past are now. Hopefully my kids will track them down and they can join my 65 fastback in the garage. :) Btw, you may want to check the reverse lights and oil pressure gauge on the one you gave your dad.
