The look on your girls face when your grabbing gears is priceless ! Great story man

Loved her eyes when you nailed it. How great!!~! Ron

Cool car. Even cooler story. Love the expression on your daughter’s face when you nailed it!

As one car guy to another, that is one of the best video's I have seen. Thanks for sharing these moments.

Great story the big smile on your daughter's face was priceless keep the story's coming

Your little girls face after 17:18, great stuff.

What you are describing is called heart. Which as you well know, shall always remain, truly priceless.

My sons little girl tells him to pick her up from school in the red car. She loves that Corvette. The other day he said they are saying its going to rain may not drive it she said you pick me up in the red car. Hope he keeps it for her. Stay safe and God bless.

That's fricken awesome, you and your daughter grabbing gears. Best video on Utube. Hands down.

awesome story. when my daughter was just old enough to talk we put her in my mach 1 mustang and my Wife my daughter and I all went out in the mach 1. well it started raining while we were in the coffee shop. me making the best of it decided that a burn out in the rain would be a good idea. so when we got out of the shop I said to my wife "see that stop sign at the end of the block I am going to spin the tires till there" once we got to the stop sign after that burn out. from the back seat comes a giggle and my daughter says "do it again"!

great story brought a tear to my eye thinking about my dad

Thanks for sharing your story. Cars are a "Family Affair" and your memories of your father just is great. I just wished I had done the same. Great video. And yes the the look on your Daughters face when you are going through the gears is priceless.

These are some epic stories!!! Love this channel!!

love your car man my dad just finished my 67 chevy 2 its a big tire car i will be racing it this year at my local track in ringgold georgia i'm just 17 and i love ol cars

Best video I have seen on youtube, Thank you for sharing.

One of the best car stories i ever watched,raise that little girl like your dad raised you,The memories the 2 of you will have will be priceless.Awesome Vette Buddy,give it to her when the time comes.keep in the family.

The rumble of a v8 is a great pacifier, the look on your little girl’s face is priceless. Awesome story buddy🙏🏼🙏🏼

Love you man, please don't ever change.

Awwwww' man. Great video !! So glad pawpaw is still around to enjoy that pretty, little lady of yours. God bless you, and yours, man ...

This is no doubt one of the coolest videos ever. I love learning the history of an old hot rod.

Thank you for posting this video. I envy you. When I showed my dad my first hot rod Chevy he berated me for it running so rough. I had high compression with a hot cam and it idled at 1200 rpm. He liked smoother is better on his cars and couldn't comprehend why you would ever boil the tires. The concept of heating your tires for a better launch was lost on him. Different strokes for different folks. Raising parents is hard to do. PS: Your daughter is precious. You are truly blessed. You have a new subscriber.

This has got to be my favorite video of all your stories. It warms my heart knowing you're going to show her friends and tell her story. Cracks me up how kids express how they feel so freely. ......Thanks Dad.....

dude that was awesome!! I did the same thing with my daughter. got her involved early and showed her how cool old cars are. I had to sell my 31 model a but I still have an old 76 k20 chevy camper special. she had the same look as your daughter when I would romp on it sometimes. she's a little older now and that " look" has turned to laughter. I tell her all the time its better to drive something old than something new. I have a samurai im building for her for school. and maybe after she graduates I can get to putting that LS motor in my short bed s10 ive been saving for when I get old. im only 61, but being disabled has really slowed my roll. but thank you for the video { and the others} it brought back some fond memories of my duster I had in high school, and those I create with my daughter! your time and effort are much appreciated.

I watch many of these junk yard mechanic/ back yard car shows and I have absolutely Love yours because of your Baby. You are raising her right and I am now going back through your older pieces to watch her growth. What a great little helper who is gaining a respect for older cars. I am betting she is going to be handing Dad wrenches until she starts using them herself.

that style of a Corvette is so my dream car

i LOVE that you recognize how special your story is, how special the car is and that you cherish the memories of you and your dad as a kid. i also love that you are making the same memories with your girl. i have to admit. i laughed my ass off when you gunned through the gears. the look on her face was priceless. she knew that she could trust daddy and that it was a fun experience. that's what family and these cars are all about.

Its not so much about the car. Its about you and your dad having a bonding moment. And sharing a life long passion!

I loved your story. My Dad asked me if I wanted his car, a 1964 Chrysler New Yorker Wagon. I said “Yes”. I promised him before he passed away I would restore in honor of him and Mom. Mom loved driving the big wagon. It brought her happiness and joy. I have spent 7 years searching and finding sources to restore its glory. Its a show car and I drive it to as many car shows as I can to share and bring the same joy to others it brought my parents. Hearing their stories of their parents driving them in a station wagon like mine has made it all worthwhile.

This is absolutely one of the purest, most beautiful videos I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing this.

Love this video,,,Iknow where you are comin from. I have a 84' Vettete that is in great shape like yours. I'll pass it to my 23 yr old Son soon.

in todays world to have these memories with your father is a very special thing... youre a lucky man

Love how you are are letting your daughter help you out.

Thank you so much for sharing your story. Took me back to working on cars and going to races with my dad. The memori8 bought tear s to my eyes . And that's what life is about. Keep it up and God bless you and your family.. YALL ARE MY KIND OF PEOPLE

Got a little choked up at you sharing the car with your daughter. Made me remember how my dad did the same for me. Can’t wait to have a family of my own to do the same to and pass along the feeling to the next generation.

Beautiful story. Not many of us are fortunate to have had a dad in our lives that shared their time and effort with us . The icing on the cake is the 64 Vette . What a beautifull car. I have a 79 c3 Vette that I enjoy immensely. I can only imagine how much you have enjoyed yours having such a beautiful story that goes with it. Continue broadcasting these videos. Is the connection that a lot of us can have to our past and younger days. I love every minute of it. Outstanding job and congrats! Well done!

Loved her expression! Reminded me of my son when he was young and my 66 GTO.

Man, such a similar story. I'm in west Tn. My dad gave me a BB Chevelle when I was 16. I watched it transform from a small block bench seat car to a BB hotrod. My daughter who is now 5 grew up in it and went through the same "too loud" phase. We aren't rich folk either...so the car is truly a sentimental piece. With the energy my dad put in it all the way down to hand polishing the crank, he will always live and breath through this car.

Your daughter's eyes at 17:20 - hahahaha amazing!!!!!

Thank you for sharing this story. Love your channel, you have a beautiful family, and may I say you have brought fatherhood to a new level. Thanks again

Put a blower back on it. It looks so much better and is so much cooler.

My new *FAVORITE* channel!!!! THE story of my family Life as a kid. AND we are the same age!!! So happy I found your channel!!

These car rides with dad are the memories she will never forget...

Great story, thanks for sharing. I was just in Tn for vacation, beautiful area.

Its a joy to see how thoughtful and precious life is for you. Gratitude is a wonderful quality. Keep counting your blessings for they are truly the enrichment of values that build your self worth. Peace. 👍

One of the greatest stories that I ever heard. Awsum. Been following you for sometime. Was a friend of Jim Barrilaro and he'd did engine work on my 1965vMustang fastback drag car, my then new 1969 Corvette with one of his wild paint jobs and a 1964 Jeep wild paint jobs. Went to the drags with him several times and got a scary wide once in his B/MP 57 Ford drag car and in his Windjammer wheelstander. New him when his speed shop was busy. Great memories.

Really enjoy this video, such a great story. I raised my daughter in my garage and the hotrod culture in my 28 model A. She is 38 now and always tells me how much she enjoyed her childhood memories. Plz keep up the good work.

I just found your channel n watched about dragging the dragster out of the woods n putting it back together then digging up of the 55 chevy n got hooked but this one made me cry thinking of my car experiences with my dad, thanks keep up the great job !

What an awsome story! Always cherish the situation and the car! I'm so envious, but proud for you!

Too cool. As a Vette guy myself, you make car guys and Vette guys proud. Let's keep our hobbies going through friends and family. Great video

Beautiful Vette!! I really enjoyed your story about it, thanks for sharing. Im glad you've hung onto it all this time, thats awesome. Dont let it go - ever no matter what. I've had a few Vettes over my 52yrs and I wish I had hung onto my first one. I just bought a brand new Z06 which is a kick ass car but nothing compares to your first one especially a Vette. Your Daughter is a little sweetheart too. Thanks again for sharing!

I love how through the years. your daughter got more comfortable with you pushing the pedal to the metal. You two are building some of the best memories of yours and hers life. Great job.

Beautiful Story And The look On Your Daughters Face Was Priceless, Family Traditions I Can See Your Daughter Slamming The Gears With Your Grand Child In the Passenger Seat :):);)

Words can't describe this video. My pop has been gone for 10 years and we used to do stuff like this all the time. He street raced a 73 Ford Torino wagon. Lime green, cop car hubcaps, absolutely base model car he stuffed a 460 into. I was 14 years old and when he took me out for rides, I thought the car was gonna suck the hood into the motor, it had the best induction sound ever. Thanks for bringing back those memories.....

I absolutely love it!! Your videos bring me a lot of memories of my own with my dad! Keep them coming Tommy!

I like your car story a lot. That's what a good car does, it gives you great memories. I've own seven mid years vettes and my 64 always held the soft spot for me. Enjoy!!...

As a 58 year old guy that got my first 1982 Corvette in 1983 and later trading it for a 1986 Corvettes has been my favorite car. I bought a 2012 in 2014 and later sold it in 2016 to buy the 2013 60th Anniversary Artic White Grand Sport that I have now. Corvettes are the true and first American Muscle Cars. Great story and great video.

Great video, great story! Thanks for sharing!

Your daughter is so stoked to help clean the car for grandpa. Loved the look on her face when you put your foot in it and especially the look after your foot came off.

A truly awesome story, thank you for sharing this .

Great story Tommy Lee 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I'm surprised I've never seen this until it just appeared in my feed just now! 😎

Your father must be so proud of you. Your story is awesome and how your passing the passion and that corvette to your daughter.

I still have my first car I ever bought w my own money at 17. It’s a 97 rs camaro. It was a few years old and only a v6, but it too started my love of all muscle cars. Cool video and thanks for the great content!!!!

very awesome story. I really love how you describe every detail

Some will never understand how special passing on something you love to your kids truly is. Great video on the history.

Definitely blessed and lov how you are showing your daughter what your dad showed you love the story's god bless you and your family.

Tears shed ! I see a girl 10-11 years from now driving a 64 vet . I was 5 sitting on the center console of a 68 (in 72) 440 RT Cornet With chrome reverse dogs And dad banging gears when I got hooked on fast cars. Some people say cars are a waste of money . They just don't have the good memories . Everyone of my good friends loves cars and motorcycles. The stories are endless from getting stuck in mud or racing to loosing a few friends .But I don't regret any of it,better to slide in to you death bed scratched beaten bruised and lived than wishing you had taken a thrill /chance now and then vs: regretting you had not lived life to it's fullest! Good luck with your channel work as hard as your dad has and sky's the limit.

great vid guy!!!! your daughter's look was priceless; you'll really enjoy that when she is grown up. your dad did a good job with you also and i hope the best for your whole family!!!

What a fabulous bunch of memories, and they were told as a great story. Really nice to hear how family figures into the whole thing. It's the people involved who make the car hobby what it is. Looks great with the mags and steelies, too!
