Road trip in a classic car - My Dad's turning 86

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

First road trip in my 1966 Mustang K code! The 5 speed transmission made the miles melt away while driving to East Texas to celebrate my Dad's 86th birthday. As you can see from the video my Dad is a classic car guy, the first generation of a multi-generation classic car family.

    You are a blessed man. Your parents look like they are in excellent health and do not show their age. Love your Dad's '57 and his Chevy truck. I really love the '66 Springtime Yellow K Code! Fantastic car! What a cool trip. Thanks for taking us along.

    Michael, I've owned more than a few of the cars you've featured over the years but I'd give them all up to have my parents alive and sharing the times you shared with us on that video. And yes, an overdrive gear in a classic is a very good thing indeed !

    For car instrument repair I highly recommend West Valley Instruments in Reseda, California. They repair a lot of classic car instruments for the Pebble Beach Concourse cars. They repaired my instruments for my Triumph TR4A and they even fixed the original Tach cable so I did not have to use an inferior after market one. Go to their website to check them out.

    Can See Where U get Ur Knowledge of Classic & Muscle Cars,Ur DAD Is One Active, Knowagable & Cool Guy ,For His Age. My First Car Was A 57 Ford Fairlane 292,That Was a Hand Down from My Parents,4 Door Post,Not Cool in the Mid 60' s if U Drove it To School,But Enjoyed It. His Is Good Enough Shape to Be Pretty Close to A Show Car.
