At 91 dad had a 1 owner 49 silver streak that still runs great. He passed away a year ago. Yes, its still in the family. No, the engine has never been apart. Thanx for the video...love the family interactions. I got tired of all the swearing in alberta, and this video popped up. Thank you.

Cars like these were built when automakers were truly craftsmen. They have so much character. It’s always nice to see cars like these

Theres NOTHING nicer and more iconic than an old Pontiac. My favorite cars. I know you aren't in the restoration business but she would definitely be a top candidate if you were. Great video.

FYI: Those white plug style packing peanuts are 'edible'. They are made of a type of sucrose and starch. Wouldn't recommend a bunch of them for Murph, but they should be non-toxic unless contaminated with other badness...

I believe the Wizard battery was made by Western Auto. My Saturdays are not complete until I get my dose of Sleeperdude.

I never took the time I should have to rebuild things with my husband. I regret that everyday. 😢Given the chance again I would love to start rebuilding stuff with him. Y’all are so awesome to watch. Your family is amazing!❤
