That was great. I watched the whole thing: "Can't go to the bathroom when he has gas".

Cool video! Thanks! I enjoyed watching him drive the old Ford.
They sold a lot of V8s in the 50s, an old guy told me if it ain't a V8, it ain't a Ford.

That was great, thanks for sharing. My favorite line, "It would do a 105 off the lot, give her a super tune up, get her broken in,.... and it'd do 115."
Awesome.

Also loved it when all the adult children were riding down the road in it reminiscing about road trips when dad wouldn't stop for anyone to pre unless the car was low on gas.

Loved the bit of being faster than a Mopar...but gotta wonder what was wrong with that early hemi..
