Remember Dads Car
 

Wow, if this doesn't warm your heart your made of stone. My Dad's car. [VIDEO]

That made throw up in my mouth,and I owned one of those. The frame rotted out.

:tu: this is good

Nice. How did it stay in that good of shape?

My old man has a 67 Olds Tornado in his garage. It only has about 60k on it. Its been in the garage for as long as Ive been alive. Wish I had the money to give it a nice paint job for him.

oh man! That brings back memories of the car my grandparents bought years ago.It was in the family after my grandparents died.My dad took it home and drove it for years then sold it. I still can't believe he sold it.Wish i could have it.
Thanks for sharing jazz:tu:

That's awesome.my papaw had a 1979 F350 ranger camper special, 2wd, 460 automatic, I remember when i was barely able to pick up q wrench helping him replace the brakes, I remember sitting in the house and id hear that truck turn over and fire and id run outside hollering make it rumble papaw, that was a good ole truck he sold it two years ago with out telling me and I almost cried cause all the memories we had in it. It was a good truck this makes me want to find the guy he sold it to and buy it back.


Strokin' Away

my grandfather used to have an olds toronado. i wanna say it was a 79? coolest thing was the diesel engine under the hood. i dont know what ever happened to it after he passed away

Actually, that didnt sound right to me so I looked it up and yeah in 79 a 5.7L diesel (preceeding the later 6.2L GM diesel) was available. But the car was much different than a 67.

You know when I read that post I kind of thought I remembered a Toronado having a diesel but wasn't for sure if it was a Toronado. Thanks for looking that up:tu:
Nice to know sometimes the mind hasn't forgotten everything:jump::c:
