★★★ *FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE VIDEO / FACT UPDATES* ★★★
*1) Do you still have the car as of Oct 2018?* - Yes he does, the video & images in this video were put together by Tommy just recently, so yes he still owns it, and as said in this video will be handing it down to his son at the right time.
*2) Why is the steering wheel on the wrong side / Right Hand Drive* - Because this is Australia, we have right hand drive cars and we drive on the opposite side of the road to Americans.
*3) Ford is American not Australian how can it be part of Australian History* - The Ford Falcon XA is a unique Ford to Australia; Australian made, Australian sold. The Ford Falcon (XA) is a full-size car that was produced by Ford Australia from 1972 to 1973 in Australia. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Falcon_(XA)
*4) You are driving on the wrong side of the road* - Yes in Australia the Police let us do that kind of thing, they very relaxed about driving on the wrong side of the road.
*5) Why didn't he let his Dad drive the car* - (Tommy Replied) "My Dad, didn't, and still doesn't want to drive the car. He refused to drive it on the day of the reveal, and to this day, still won't drive it. I don't know why. I have told him he can drive the car whenever he wants."
*6) Why didn't he give the car back to his parents?* - (Tommy Replied) "As the video states, they never wanted the car back. It was mine to do with it as I pleased. I was given the car when my parents moved into town and had nowhere to keep the car."
*7) "F O R D Logo" - If you forward to **5:10** you will notice an error in the ford emblem on the rear trunk/boot. The F and the O are incorrectly spaced apart compared to the spacing between the other letter.* - Reply from Tommy, "The badges on the boot were not evenly spaced when the car was purchased new. Hence why we chose to not get them perfectly spaced out."
Wow! What a heart warmer! I LOVE IT!!
Wonder World I thought most of these were obvious besides the first question.
Obvious to us, but if you read the comments below, you can see why i added the info here
About the fact #4, you're driving in the correct side of the car according to Jeremy Clarckson, lol. I'm Brazilian, so I drive in the wrong side of the road.
I loved the video, a unforgetable car with a beautiful story.
I was talking in the other day with a friend of mine about the Aussie V8 car culture. You have so many unique V8 cars, like Sandman or the UTE's like Maloo, for example. I think that Australia have to present more of their V8 culture to the world, not only the Mad Max side of the story.
PS: Sorry about my English since it's not my first language
I have no doubt the V8 culture is still strong in certain groups & communities, but with fuel prices and car companies shutting down due to poor sales and imports being economical 4 or 6 cylinders, I think the culture is dying off.
Price to fix the car: thousands of dollars
Price to see your parents' joyful face: priceless
Exactly. Couldn't say it better myself, because I was literally going to comment that myself 😂
Theorically it costed the same as the car to see them smile but...
The price to see the joy on your parents' face is technically = to the price to fix the car.
The joy n happiness of dear ones is priceless....our parents do so many things for us. Its little gesture towards them...
@ Alfando Savant, "for everything else, there's Mastercard"
The father's face when he was sitting inside... man, he looked like he traveled back in time! Amazing gift! Hats off!
He did travel back in time.
That was so cool. Well worth the money
Man, did you see 9:24? He for sure travelled back in time.

Shall we name it "the Tardis" then?
If his parents were trying to raise a real "MAN",they succeeded ❤️
yes
yes indeed
A kind son yes. But it's bought by him not built by him. Big difference
@@devinkaiser5020 ...eh I mean he still managed all the parts and things like that so yeh still epic
@@devinkaiser5020 not really.
This made my day 300x better
The way his dad started crying really hit the soft spot
Great vid
No one is gonna cry like that when they see their Prius after 20 years ...
Yashpashar truer words never spoken
Classic :-)
Make that a 2003 kia
Most cars built now a days do not inspire like the cars of the early 70s and back. Now a days it is all junk. No thought put into building cars.
Jerry Traveler it’s a shame that Nows cats are built to last 2-3 years, while the orders were built to last they were built to be driven, really driven
I felt like I could literally see his father reliving all the memories he had in that car.............
The first time he and his wife shagged lol
@@Eddie-0102 shagged rotten😍
He looked over at the empty passenger seat and got a flashback of his first hum job
i thought the same thing good stuff
Ptsd
I remember a day when you wouldn't of got 500 bucks for that Coupe and now its probably worth $500,000, The Superbird wasnt the most sought after Hardtop back in the day but my god you have done an amazing job of bringing this old bird back to life . And a wonderful heartfelt family story , you could see it really mean't something to Dad, Congratulations to everyone involved .
Thanks brother #YNWA 🔴⚪️
Even bought a tear to my eyes. The Dad was speechless, literally.
Bruh i swear this is the car from old ben 10 episodes LOL
Yes it’s kevin levin’s car
Though it’s colors are reversed I think.
Plot twist * hes grandpa Max.
man y’all don’t know anything. kevin drove a challenger
Rehman Khan but the overall external aesthetic image is strikingly similar, depending on the version of the series or other media that you have seen and/ or read of in other researched and analyzed websites.
His dad was so happy without saying a word. So much respect between father and son. Great story, great family... worth the effort.
Just another youtube user .
Just another youtube user .
Those memories are ireplaceable.
Just another youtube user .

He is proud of the car.
But prouder of his Son
You raised good people.
His parents reaction made it all worth it. That car is gorgeous. Nicely done
Thanks Wonder World for putting this video together to tell my story in its entirety. Love your work. I hope everybody enjoys it as much as I did!
You are welcome Tommy
Hey tommy the car looks great bro . As some one who loves old fords i have to say thank you .
What a beautiful car and a beautiful story. Well done Tommy!
Good on ya Tommy, that's such a great thing to do for your parents. Your Dad's reaction is priceless. Mums well choked up as well. 👍
my tears are real bro seing you fathers reaction n moms was the best give them my best wishes
When his parents a cry, i cry too, wonderful job, sorry for my broken English, I'm from Russia.
You’re not the only one
When it comes to classic cars my friend, it makes no difference who you are or where you come from; we all belong to the same family.
don't be sorry about your broken English, its good you make mistakes so you can learn from them. Sometimes.
This is an awesome video and this comment section is just as good thanks to all
Never appologise for something like broken English when it is not your first language buddy. I think it's amazing that you can speak two languages
I just handed down a 68 XR-7 G Cougar to my son. I bought it in 1983. These feel good car stories and priceless.
As soon as mom sat in the car you could see both the mom and dad travel back in time 20 years to driving this beautiful vehicle.
A car is not just a vehicle. Its a pack of emotions.
Right bro and it's doesn't matter it's cheap or expensive
Not when it's still in the showroom
Such pity a lot of people don't realize that and never take good care of their vehicles
no i’m pretty sure a car is a vehicle
Damn true
I'm not crying, it's just the strong smell of petrol...
Beat the devil out of it
Me neither 😭😭😭. First CZcams video to make me cry.
It’s Vin Diesel standing right behind you crying his fuel out of his eyes when he saw this beautiful car
Shit. Me too
Making our parents happy is the greatest gift ever🖤
Respect to Tommy for the awesome job of restoring a great car. It warms my heart to see the love put into it. Doing this type of work is one of my trades and I've grown up with a love for American muacle cars and that includes our Australian muscle car cousins as well. One of , among many, of the great cars and trucks my father owned when i was a kid was a 1967 Ford Mustang ( green ). Once again, much respect from here in the States.
Thanks bud
Mr.Bean just upgraded his ride.
Lol
I thought it’s kevin levin’s car

U mean kevin from ben 10
lol
That 45 year old model looks far greater than the ones now

The parents raised a boy who in life and heart turned into a real man!! Kudos mate.
You are an excellent son buddy, your parents will be really proud of you. God bless you 🙏
lost my dad at 2018 wish i could have done something like this...miss my old man! great video!
Sorry for your loss man do it anyways tho and make him proud even from the afterlife.
@@iamzed6096 thank you for the kind words ZED God bless you!
Gaurav Moral no problem man the most I can do! Now full send it and make him proud!
@@iamzed6096 thanks again friend will do whatever it takes!!
Don’t know you broski, but if you still have a family car that your dad used to drive you in then you should probably keep it maintained in his honor. Just a thought, I’m sorry for your lost though. I’m sure he’s smiling somewhere that you’re a good person.
One of the best cars ever! Sold my 73 Ford to pay for my wedding. Now I am divorced and missing my car. Classic.
Old Chinese proverb: Never ask a man to choose between his favourite car and woman. The woman will always come off second best. Same as never ask a musician to choose between his music and a woman.
Never change a car for a bitch! My wife told me after i got married to sell my cars , cause i had alot of them(mostly SAAB). I never sold one, and now i eneded up with a big collection. Even you sold your car for the wedding, this was not wise at all. A woman you can get anytime....but a classic.....much harder. Now don't get me wrong ,i love my wife and i understand everything......but it is not wise to mix cars and women. Women have their place, and the cars another.
Should have ditched the gal and kept the car instead!
@@thedolphin5428 Nothing like wine, women and song!
Turns out, I have a Race Car and many guitars 😂 hope my mrs doesn't give me the ultimatum. She's not Gunna be happy 🤣
“Brings back a lot of memories” 😏
fr that dad definitely had some fun with the mom on that car 😏
A couple of root rats ;)
Ayo lmao
This actually brought tears to my eyes seeing his parents reaction
Same here
Me too
Shane Berstler same here
Same here.. Such a wonderful thing to do.
Not me. I just got a bit of dust or something in my eye, both eyes in fact, at the same time. Yeah, dust. Not crying, god no. OK damn it, you caught me. I got all emotional and stuff. I'm a grown man with heart, what can I say? Beautiful car, beautiful restoration, beautiful story.
I can totally understand why this car is not for sale. Its a beauty with a history. Something money cant buy.
DJ Pete B but instead can fix
EXCATLY
Agreed.
Exactly he did a great job
*cahh
Dad never said a word he just walked slowly to the car and sat down .I think more than one dream came true that day .I thank you sir for showing this video It say's so much with so few words ,thanks again .
Well I am sitting here crying. I too have restored a wreck to the same condition as the Falcon . Every dollar was truly well spent. Great to see it. well done.
8:06 all the memories rushing through the dad’s head......good job sir
Jorge Garcia 🙌🏼
omg yess😭 i will always love old cars
He's so speechless, those old day memories come rushing to his mind. And I'm so touch seeing him and also the mother.
I can't even begin to imagine how proud his parents are, especially Dad, excellent work Tommy, respect! 🤜🤛
👍
WOW great job everyone.... made me choke up with pride to see the family see it for 1st time in years. Love from America!
Cars aren't just transportation, they are trusted friends that we build memories together with them.
car companies should make oldschool cars (with modern engines etc) because they look fabulous.
YES
Yeah that’d be really nice
The designs changed because the old styles we're death traps.
Search new old ford mustangs cr is making 69 boss 302s boss 429s shelby an machs with 69 vin that has 69 body an modern engines an suspensiona
KoTu that is an actual thing there are companies that do this
You only not restored the car... But also you bring back all the memories in that car.... Great build mate
He was speechless, and I can understand that. It's fantastic.
WELL DONE MATE. You bought tears to my eyes seeing your Mum & Dad once again see the car how it should be.
Sadly I don't have the funds to help my Father restore his & Mum's and OUR Family Falcon to enjoy the experience you did. I prey I can get help SOMEWHERE to do the restoration on his complete Fairmont GXL that still has everything to it as he bought it from Kyneton Ford so I can experience him & Mum driving it once again before they pass. And its in more than a reasonable condition being kept out of the weather now for over 30 years.
I can only wish to see my Father bring a tear to his eye and my Mum be so excited to once again see there Family car they and me grew up in.
Well done and congratulations. It was a very tearful moment watching this. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. 🙏
seeing your mum and dad reaction PRICELESS.....
Finally found the green sabre. I'm calling CJ
OOOOOOH CJ
Best comment yet lmfao
Bahahahahahahaha my booooy
BWAHAHAHAHA, whatever you do don't take smoke through a drive thru!!
AH SHIT, SWEET!
Made me cry. This is how a son should be. 💙
Such a beautiful story
OLD cars looks way better than new ones....
Naberius some old ones.
Naberius agreed
Agreed, though supercars always look nice
Yeah especially Yugo or Trabant xd
not all but many
And they say money can't buy happiness.. Edit: Given you have health, family and friends.
@@iangarcia2708 , sure it can. Just buy a second car!
Lol
The happiness was the fact that he took the time to repair it and all the old memories they probably had in the car.
TubiTheWart yea that’s when the son was first created
It may not allow you to buy happiness but it sure lets you suffer in style!
I am a HOLDEN bloke however, I just love to see restorations of older Australian cars done right. You have done right mate and, brought so much happiness to your Mother and Father seeing an old friend be restored just like what you have done. Good for you, what a fantastic job. Thanks for sharing. DM.
Okay the photos at the end got me :) he must be so proud of his son :')

I would do this quick for my parents but I lost my mom three weeks ago too cancer I wish I could have did something like this for her but I did help her through a lot an gave her all the love I had rip mom I love you
May god bless you and take good care of yo momma. You still have time to do what Tommy did, but don't do it just for yourself, do it for yo momma (and father) too, so you can have the great memories in whatever car she got the same way she had great memories in it when she was living. I believe in you and I think yo momma would be happy and proud of you if she was still alive. Don't give up.
Stay strong my bro, they say time heals all wounds but it still hurts like a bitch for me evn 8 years later. You just gotta stay focused and stay strong for the people around you.. Shit happens, we all gotta go some day. Just live the best life you can while you're here
Sorry for your loss, god bless you both.
Fuck u
Sorry for your loss, God bless
I love this, as a car enthusiast myself I love the 1970’s cars and this is so heartwarming
Also at 2:22 is that a. HQ Holden kingswood? Or a Monaro?
Blood, sweat, tears, bodywork, paint, and accessories... $$$$$... Reaction of Mom and Dad... PRICELESS ! ! ! This video was awesome
I'm a 58 year old hard ass old man but what you did for your mom and dad brought tears to my eyes that was one of the greatest things I've seen on CZcams thank you for the Post I hope you get a million likes and a million subscribers that was great
Terry Morrison and I haven’t seen any 58 year olds in Japan that talk like this
Chill down. This video is everything wrong with this planet ! 100k in resources wasted for what? A muscle car that nobody needs and pollutes the planet? Fuck that. He coulda bought 10 new KIA cars and helped 10 (!) families not just do this for an emotional high for his dead beat dad.
@@kosovir Why did you come to this video? To complain that spending 100k on a classic muscle car is bad? This video is literally about a son restoring his parents' car!

What a beautiful beautiful story! Loved it! The old picture of the couple sitting on the hood back in 73 was priceless!!!
nice
Great story, someone was cutting onions towards the end!
Good to see that children still care for their parents and love them. Restoration of anything old also restores a lot of memories....and old memories have many important people alive. Well done Son.
Ugh I hate seeing older people cry, always makes me cry too (especially if it's an older dude). Very special moment, wonderful to see!
@William White f*k off mate
Don't mind others they didn't get what you are saying I can relate to you
This guy is saying that he hates when old people cry because he gets just as emotional as they are and for some reason there are people who for some reason don't like getting emotional like me but it ok it just shows how sensitive people are and remember the rule of thumb on internet (never show your emotions on the internet because people won't get them)
@William White fuck you and for fucks sake read the comment properly you didn't get what he meant
@@bjornlothbrok1964 random person made a perfect explanation of what I meant, not my problem you failed reading comprehension.
@@grannyjuices6040 Some people don't (or won't?) understand the feeling in your words. Me too, cry when I see old people crying out of their emotions.
Thanks for your beautiful and soulful words.
What a great story... I bought a 69 Cutlass conv.... It was a piece of crap... I promise my mother that I would take her for a spin once I finish it.. unfortunately my mother passed away from cancer and I couldn't finish it on time to take her on that ride.. the day I finished my project I took it out for a spin and you guys won't believe what happened... My block blew up as I was driving it.. original block
(350)and tranny..(350)
. My heart was shattered and my car was dead... I couldn't believe it how could this happen mother is gone, 6 years fixing the body, interior and restoring the block and now thissssss..... The car sat for about a year... One day I woke up and said F this I'm going all out, so I took it to a shop in Carmichael ca ... Super machine motor shop and put in a brand new block (455 650hp) and a new tranny (200r) new gauges new disk brakes new suspension... And now I drive it and I know mama is with me at all times....😢😢.... R.i.p mom... I miss u...
Rip to your mom
May your mom rest in peace. And i bet she ill be proud of you and that she protects you.
Much love and respect brother❤️
R.I.P 😢
So sad to hear that 😭 I feel you
I applaud you for having virtually resurrected the car to its original glory. It is a very beautiful vehicle. For the family it means so much more. For the parents, many joyful memories in their youth is intimately tied to the car. For Tommy, particularly childhood memories. These memories are priceless and the car will always drive them along memory lane. This car is virtually the bridge to a beautiful past. I have like memories of my favorite car the HQ Holden Belmont.

Oh hi scammer
Are u sure about that??? 😏
I lost my Dad to cancer four weeks ago.
Seeing something like this, where a son has the desire, commitment and dedication to pursue a project like this tells me so much about the man who is his Dad, and the woman who is his Mum. It touches me deeply and made me cry with happiness that he’s been able to experience such an incredible thing with his parents.
Much respect.
I can relate. My dad died of lymphoma 4 years ago and seeing a video like this hit me in the feels pretty hard.
Take care bro may god bless ur fathers soul r.i.p
Love them when they are with you .. not only on Dad's day & Mum's day
Sorry for your loss. Thank God for the time that you did have with your father. Some of us did not even have that much.
God bless u brother
Hope u become successful in life
Stay strong we are with you
you guys did an amazing job gathering parts is a hassle in itself and you have done it all , massive respect brother ❤❤❤❤
There are those vehicles from childhood that leave a mark😊
As soon as the dad came out tears just starts running down my face😢😢 i freaking lovee it
yes a great moment
If anyone didnt start crying soon as you you saw that dads reaction i dont think your human haha .
Yeah sure u were crying liar
Yeah you must play forkniife.
Seems like you’re not so notorious after all
Nothing really touches my heart except parents' tears of joy.
Father could do with a few less carbs though.
U r obsolutely right
Truly priceless, can't beat a child's love for their parents or vice versa 🙏🏽💜
Literally her parents were crying because they are missing old days
A 100 million dollar romantic film can't match the emotions of those blessed parents and their son, great job mate. That's why they say 'life is more dramatic than fiction'
I've had my Camaro for 21 years, it is no longer a just a means of transportation, but a family member, a friend and a sanctuary. When my little brother died, it became a place to escape to. It literally carried me through the worst time of my life.
It is currently undergoing major upgrades. People think I've spent too much on it, but to me, it has earned it and deserves it. It's just time to return the favor. I understand this story, and when his folks came out, well, can't put a price on that.
If your Camaro brings you peace for the memory of your brother ,than by all means necessary fix that bad boy up no matter what it cost. Sorry for your loss.
"What other people think of me is none of my business" A good quote to live by as it does not matter what people think of how much you have spent, if its worth it to you then its worth every cent spent. You cannot put a price on sentimental memories.
The reasons for doing it is priceless, Its really great to see some fairdinkum people with their hearts and priorities in the right place.
Good story and blessings to you...
Sorry for your loss. I agree, if it bring you peace and solitude then it's worth it no matter the cost. That car was your life line in rough times. I bet she'll look beautiful when your done.
That reaction of his old man...words could never express the volume of obvious memory and emotion flooding through him silently walking around the bird and jumping in with the missus later joining him. Loved the cheeky look he gave her as he pumped the gas. I know that look 😄
Well done to the son. That was beautiful man
Just look at his parents 1 Hundred thousands is nothing compare to watching them happy remembering those old times, so much of their memories ❤️ May your parents be proud of you 💓 Respect them
The reaction of of his parents is priceless. You can feel the love for the car especially for his parents. Well done my friend well done.
😘😍
Their love is only partially for the car. The real love and emotion is with time that has passed. Seeing the car back in it’s original state would have time travelled them back to 1973. A time when their kids were small, they were young, and their lives were ahead of them.
The car is the catalyst, but not the reason.
Mr ___________ is right, it's the memories it's bringing back not the car. When I see my first car still at the breakers yard after all these years I remember the good old times and how it was a blessing and allowed me to do many things that I've couldnt without a car.

The best gift any kid can give to his/her parents, precious memories 💖
Beautiful car. Good craftsmanship on restoring. Awesome reaction of the father and mother’s face. I lost my composure when the father was sitting in the car staring at the dashboard. I’m still blowing my nose and whipping my eyes with tissues. That was a great story of love. Thank you. You made my day.
Wow, when the dad does that last little shimmy to position himself in the car @ 7:45, u can literally see him go back in time. The look on his face I mean. U can soooo tell he’s picturing the past and his youth in that moment.
Loved this video !!!!! Great kids !!!!
If you didn't shed a few tears along with his dad, you're not a real car guy.
what a beast of a car... hats off to tommy for getting back on the road in such a great condition
As a father myself only 20 years younger I can tell you at 8:05 he not thinking about the car, he’s thankful of a wonderful son
I almost cry when i see his dad emotion. Thats priceless 👍
kenneth ting me too
Almost ? Lol
A man understands...
Brought tears to my eyes. I can relate to the story. I'm 70 years old, american, and have my old '67 Pontiac GTO sitting in a barn since 1984. Needs restoring. Maybe my son, 28, will do it some day.

@@bjornlothbrok1964 That might be the correct decision for you, but apparently it is not for him. I mean after all. Why would the car be a better investment for a new owner - rather than a keeper for the present one ?
@@bjornlothbrok1964 That aspect of humanity is our means of survival but also our downfall. Although its important, you shouldn’t always be thinking about gain and the future. It isn’t always about the grind. Cherish the meaningful stuff in life that have memories and experiences attached to them. To you that car is a price tag, to him that’s a priceless memory that makes him feel happy. Change your perspective
@@bjornlothbrok1964 there is more than just investing and money..there are always alternatives..you are not saying the truth you are just being an idiot
Not going to lie I cried, that was awesome
I approached the restoration of my 1968 Dodge Charger R/T in a similar way, did some of the disassembly and simple refurbishing but had most of the work done by others… and yes, I too spent way over 100k on the restoration. My family like yours has a deep emotional bond with my car, it has been in our family for almost 50 years. I do not drive the car near enough but at this point have no plans on selling. Enjoy and thanks for sharing your story.
Thanks bud
Tough wise dad. He deserve more. My respect to him.
