    Your dad and I have similar taste in cars because we are close in age. Enjoy your time with him, it's cool you can do stuff like this together, and I enjoy seeing him in your videos.

      I think he's like 8 years younger than I am so we're pretty close......The popular mod for the gremlin was drop a 327 in them. Bolted right up. A buddy in highschool had one...was a rocket.....same as a vega...a 327 would drop right in and bolt up to the transmission.

    Your dad looks a bit younger than me. I grew up on late 50's and all the 1960's cars (graduated HS in 1969...) You said everything your dad looks at is 'funny', while everything YOU look at is 'cool'. Your dad's favorites are cool too.

    • @muskokamike127
      @muskokamike127 Před rokem

      I'm 1 decade younger and 1 decade older than him, right in the middle so I like em all.
      I really have a thing for 50's and 60's pickups. TBH Even a 30's....I'd love to get one and do a semi resto mod on it. Put a modern drivetrain and brakes to make it reliable and safe and keep the rest stock. Nothing wild, a nice V6 with 250 hp, just make it into a nice sunday driver.

    @mrfred7926 Před rokem

    Regarding how to distinguish between 1967 and 1968 and 1969. (That’s when I started driving).
    Starting in 1968, sidelights we’re mandated. So yellow in front, on the side, red in back, on the side.
    1967 had no sidelights. Starting in 1968, there are sidelights. Yellow and red.
    Starting in 1969, headrests we’re required. And so how to tell apart 1967, 1968, 1969?
    1967- no sidelights;
    1968-sidelights (without headrest); and
    1969-headrests are present!

    That 308 GTSi would be mine if I could afford it. The fuel injected ones are so much nicer than the carbureted ones that require constant tuning and syncing. You can just get in an "i" and drive it. You can buy that '09 GT500 for high $30k's. The '13 and '14 are $50k. They have the big engine.

      @muskokamike127 Před rokem

      there are days and then there are days where they run through all the "normal" cars. A buddy's dad would go to the BJ auctions and on a thursday night you'd see all kinds of 60's and 70's cars go through not all original, not collectors, just regular drivers. Sell for $4500 to $7500. They run "collector" or valuable cars through peak times and on the weekend. Friday night is one of the prime times for running hot cars through....

    13:39 to me, THAT is what you should be shooting for instead of a ferrari.....Not sure if I told this story: I had family who worked at a ford dealer and if I was in the area I'd stop in and say hi. The sales team knew me. One day I was in talking to my sis in law and the sales manager says "hey mikey, you interested in a ford GT"? (I think it was 2005). Huh?
    "step into my office" so like a fool I did.
    Seems someone came in and put like $30K down and ordered one, when it came in he backed out of the deal. I think the list was $196 CDN and minus the $30K was around $150K was what they'd let it go for. (remember they were having a hard time selling them back then).
    I said "no, can't afford it but how about taking it for a spin" NOOOO he said emphatically. "come on, we're almost family" "I know your family lol".....
