Yup, early 50’s here.

Plus, all my components are still working, just a little slower 🙄

Wow, what a commercial! That was awesome and hit home here too.

Merry Christmas friends!

Wow, definitely my favorite GM commercial from the last few years.

Haven't watched it before so thanks for sharing.

I should get a T shirt made that says "Ran when parked".

Very nice. I always get a bit sentimental around Christmastime (I do some of my best writing this time of year).

I think you all know I have my dad's GTO. The sight and smell of that car sure brings back a lot of memories.

After I had my own shop I was able to sequester the car away and get it cleaned up, de-tuned and with the right tire/wheels on it.

Dad also had this little '63 Lemans. He kicked off a mild restoration (new top, paint, wheels, underhood detail) but sadly never got to ride in it after it was completed.

That's a tough watch - in a good way.
