- This 1967 Ford F250 has been pulling its weight around Rusty Acres, so my son Brand and I decided to put a little lip stick on it.

Brad is a very lucky kid to have a father who will teach him skills and a career for life, old school and real school all in one.
I was just thinking that, all my dad did is drink and tell me to shut up lol
thats SO true
I would help dad change oil filters and coolant from time to time. I always got screaming from the top of his lungs so the next county could hear what was going on.
DON'T SPILL IT EVERYWHERE!!!!
PUT THAT OIL FILTER ON STRAIGHT!! DON'T STRIP IT!! I was shell shocked before jr high.
@@mighty300il6 never knew i had a brother lol
Yep, my dad taught me how to rebuild an in-line 6 when I was in the 6th grade. I’ve been working on cars as a hobby all my life! Be blessed!
I love that you’re including Brad in your videos. What a wonderful gift you’re giving to him by teaching him your craft like your dad did.
Brad does not understand that in 10 years he is going to look back at this video, and think, why did I look so bored. Liven up Brad, you got the one life, Also I'm pretty sure your father named you after a tank.
He is going to need an offshoot channel like Lodge or Jessica's wranchin' channel.
I hope he understands the idiosyncrasies of the humor so he can carry on the family tradition like Bocifous.
@@alwaysopen7970 he has little grip garage
@@jamesmclaughlin8261 I believe that is actually his youngest son's channel
@@jamesmclaughlin8261 Thats Bentley, not Bradley.
As a metalhead, Derek just made my day. I'll be dipped. That's some going to town tunes right there.
Who is the band and name of the song it's awesome I gotta know ?
OMG! I've never seen in that in one of his videos and LOVED it!
@@michaelwebb9312 Deaf Election - The Prisoner in You. Had to Shazam it. :)
This guy is the Bob Ross of car repair: very relaxed tone of voice, having fun with what he's doing, and very knowledgeable at his craft.
"Just Tickle on it a bit." Is my "Just beat the devil out of it."
That's what I've been telling my Missus, she loves Bob Ross, now I've got Derek and his odes ❤🤡❤️
Bob Ross with a splash of Fozzy Bear.
Gosh! I loved that flashback! They grow up so fast. It’s nice that you spent time and teach your children practical knowledge and work ethics. They may sadly be in the minority. Good job Derek and Jessica!
Watching these home movies are the best...
looks like the truck in the old Charles Bronson Mr. Majestyk movie - cool ride
L l.
My dad and I worked together on many different projects and cars, regtably he has been gone 27 years and I still miss him and the adventures we had together
Man, that part where you asked your son, "it's your truck, should we see if it does a burnout?" was probably the best moment I've seen in one of your videos.
kinda gave Brad that feel good...he couldn't drive but he COULD authorize the burnout in HIS truck!
It's always a good day for a burnout
Bad thing to teach your kid, unless you want him to know what NOT to do! Beating the heck out of his nice old truck could turn out to be costly, in a lot of ways.
@@oldscout80 Blah blah blah.
The respect shown between a son and his dad working on vehicles in the shop is unlike any other.
I like how you’re being patient and teaching the boy it’s a good job dad
I’m going to go out on a limb and say that this has to be up there as one of your best videos for two reasons: 1. Having your kids help and getting them into the hobby in the best way possible. 2. Having fun with the music at 44:35
All these core memories you’re making with your boys is incredible. They will remember stuff like this for the rest of their lives. This is what it is all about, thanks for sharing this with us Derek.
Young son, in the middle during the first drive, was having an absolute memory for his life!
Today is the anniversary of my grandpas death and you’re right; my family and I have been sharing those core memories you speak of, all day.
My first time watching you. I’m an old lady in my 60’s. 🙂😂 While seeing you with your son makes me think of all the youths these days going out carjacking vehicles, or stealing them from a driveway. After they do get them, it is nothing to them to wreck them, or drive the engine right out of them. It is evident they have never had a father figure around to teach them skills to make an honest living, morals, and about God. Most that have had a father, is in prison. It is sad just how far our country has changed (for the worst) in just a few decades. The wonderful part is your son has all of these special moments with you on film (ok, or ‘digital’ imaging, haha) where he can one day share with his children and his grandchildren. 👍🙏
Look out! Boomer hot take! xD
The nice thing about this, is after you are dead and gone, this kid is always going to remember how to do this kind of work, and have fond memories of making youtube videos with his dad.
As a guy who lost his Father at a very young age, this is the exact project I want to do with my 1 year old son. I love this content Derek, keep up the fantastic work! Cant wait to see you throw it down in Indy!
Why is is so peaceful and relaxing seeing a young man working on a truck with his Dad helping. It is just right that's all.....
Derek, you are a good dad. The memories made in this video are forever.
Would love to see more on this one. Think it's great to see a dad and son working together and sharing an interest.... Good times!
This guy Derek and his family will be remembered as Legends FACTS!!!
You mean fact? Or did I not see the other ones?
Remember kid.. heroes get remembered, but legends never die.
Hulk
Best dad ever. That Bradley looks like he could eat some groceries, he’s growing up fast. I remember that episode when you guys dug this truck out of the weeds together, one of my favorites. Keep making memories men.
Them young fellas about eat a guy out of house and home….
You trying to speak like the CZcamsr?
Your boy has already surpassed most people...most guys nowadays can barley put fuel in thier 🚗....GREAT JOB LIL MAN!!!
Brad will remember this as long as he lives. What a great guy.
This is a great father and son relationship, this helps a growing boy become a man,and a man who can take care of himself and the family, Derek 👍
The father son video has me missing my old man... Lost him back in August, used to do projects like this together... Keep up the good work and thanks for the wholesome content
I hear ya man. Mine’s been gone 11 years now. Learned everything I needed to know from him, and worked on several different projects with him. He gave me his old race car when I was a teenager, and it took me way too long to get it on the road. Finally did, but he’s not here to see it and enjoy it with me. Sorry for your loss brother.
I lost my Dad 31 years ago when he was only 49. We did everything together with my Brother and Sister. I think about him every day.
My dad passed in '05 and his dad in '57. I never met him. One thing my dad gave me was an old wooden box containing some his Old Man's tools. They're antiques now. In that box today I found my own 7/16" Snap-On socket that I bought in '79. I've wondered where that old socket was for a long, long time.
My sympathy for your loss. He left you his memory and skills. Carry on, good man.
Takes a long while for that sucker punch in the gut feelin to leave, You will see him often as you age whenever you look into the mirror.
Literally, by definition, the World's Best Dad! :
Showing your son the proper way to do a burn-out, in the truck they revived together, worked on as a team.
Thank you for this, and your dedication to your craft.
And for being such a great dad.
Thanks for the kind words
@@ViceGripGarage My dad was literally never there. A son can't become a man without his dad.
@@schumannresonanceswithverte Yah... my dad was mostly not there either. BUT, one time when he was home for the weekend, he let me drive in the mall parking lot in his 1976 VW Rabbit. I was12 yrs old and I ended up loving the VW's!! That was 1982.
@@buckchase1 Thank you for sharing your story. Well, here's my dad: drunk when he was home, beat my mother usually.
Then after a horrendous fight, he'd be gone for months at a time.
Maybe we'd get a card from him, to let us know where he was.
Mostly no word, so my mom couldn't track him down for alimony.
My mom had 3 kids, his kids, he never cared about.
At 8 I had a hubcap collection on my wall. My father came into the room, drunk, and accused me of probably stealing them all.
I wrote a poem about cars once, he told me it was crap because poems are supposed to rhyme, and no one writes a people about cars.
At 7 I was asked what I wanted to be for Halloween that year, and I said I wanted to be a tow truck for halloween. He refused to make me a tow truck outfit because, well, no one is a tow truck for halloween; I had to be a person, or a famous character.
I've only ever, really loved cars, trucks and motorized things. What's really sad about this is that my father never understood this, or simply didn't care.
There's lots more times I expressed my love for cars, trucks, where I was just shot-down for a stupid idea.
By my father.
.
Derek, literally is the worlds best dad, as far as I'm concerned.
Moreso than my own, if I'm to be honest.
I love what he does with the cars, and all of that. Derek is literally a god with this stuff, but that's not what's most amazing here.
Not just for what he's doing to rescue these old cars; but to take his family, specifically his boys, into this process with him.
That's next level stuff, to me personally.
Thank you for all that you do, Derek.
You're fabulous.
Watching a dad and his boys is awesome!!!
That little extra video with Brad seeing the truck for the first time and the first drive had a tear in my eye. Damn I miss my Dad.
Definitely took me back too..
Cherish every second you get with yer Pa Brad. My father just passed away a couple weeks ago and he taught me so much. Wrenchin, drivin, playin the guitar etc. We are lucky to have Dads that care. Thank you Derek
The world needs more men like you, a feller needs to learn this stuff from his father, much respect to you and your family
Too many "fellers" don't have a clue...or want to dirty their hands...
I taught my son how to work on cars, motorcycles, and most phases of construction. It's about spending time together and teaching independence. It also builds confidence, which makes for a better adult. I hope to do the same with my grandkids.
I just love the relationship Derek has with his kids. I wish I could have had that with my dad. So a guy here is living vicariously through the videos. I never knew much about cars before. But I feel like I'm learning more watching VGG. God bless you and your family Derek!
I’d like to see more of the old Ford’s journey and how Brad journeys with it.
Specially if Brad Decides to add some Style Accents of His Own Choosing !
This is the only CZcams channel I’m a paying member for, and you guys don’t disappoint in the slightest. The cars are awesome and very unique, but more importantly you take the time to explain and answer questions that we’re all scratching our heads at and I’ve learned so much about vintage vehicles that I feel like I can be proud of it. I’m only 19 but it makes me want to get something old and beat on. Thanks for all your hard work, it’s amazing seeing this channel grow the way it has.
I loved that temporary transfer of power when Brad says “yea I’ve got a lot of work to do so……”. Haha!!!!
I am amazed to see such excellent parenting. My children, 29 and 34 have recently shared stories about friends of theirs who basically had very little paternal involvement. So I asked how mom and I did and they you were there, you taught us the best way you knew how.
You don’t a second chance, so keep that family real close to you
Best automotive channel in the world. I love how family friendly you are, and it's so cool to see your sons following in your footsteps.
Just when I thought this guy could not be more awesome he goes and shreds. I love every video on your channel and if you want to throw in some more of your musical talent in future videos I will strongly support that
Bucket list.....play guitar with Derek and make a song. That was awesome man. Working on stuff and playing guitar every now and then makes me happy too.
I am 65 years old, my Dad has been dead for forty years now. He was 70. The times I most remembered being with him was under a hood. Hands all greasy. Derrick, you are being a Dad the right way. Your boys will be remembering these times when they are old. BTW, you got a bang up family
The musical section was killer! Love the truck upgrades too. Nice stuff.
I picture Derek as more of a bassist but, he likes to jam. I love the car emblems on the Dimebag guitar.
@@alwaysopen7970 - I saw that. I've been a drummer for 2/3 of my life. Music and cars.........can't beat it.
The joy in those kids faces when you dumped the clutch is pure gold . God bless good dads
There is a small uninsulated braided Ground Wire in your original Ford Distributor . It fastens to the Ignition Points backing plate , and to the main Distributor housing . If that wire breaks it will cause some of the same problems that you were having with that Ford Distributor .
I don't think that nothing thrills a gearhead more than a Dad working with (his) kids. Gotta love it.
Look how big Brad is getting. Man I love this family
A Guy might need a Bigger Rig ??
Yep. These people are human gold.
I noticed that too. You must have been watching this channel a long time as well
@@canadaeast8358 I subscribed 2 years ago.
@@canadaeast8358 Correction- I subscribed more like 3 years ago! Forgot it's 2022 now
It's nice to see you two working on the truck together. My dad passed when I was 5 so I never got the chance to now him or learn things and had to make do for myself, but with my son now I'm hoping to get the chance to teach. Weird though, never thought I'd never get to know my dad or have a relationship with him until my son was born. Now I get the relationship I missed out on, but I get to live it from his shoes. Good stuff Derek and Bradley.
I get ya and how you feel. Lost mine when I was 6. My dad was an auto mech and very well known for it. I love vehicles and like you said I get to live that relationship with my three young ones. Thanks for the great perspective.
The look on those boy's faces when Dad was 'lighten' 'em up' was awesome! Better start stashing tires now, they're going to leave a lot of rubber on those backroads.
Haven't heard 'give it the onions' since my grandfather passed away 25 years ago.
Lucky boys. My best memories are working in the garage with my dad. 10 years old rotating tires on the 8 lug '67 f-250 with a t-bar wrench. No cordless impacts in those days.
Way to go DAD!!!!
There needs to be a heart button as an option for us viewers. Love these videos of you working with your kids.
Your outro at the end, really got to tugging on my heart strings. Really motivated me to get started fixing on my 1971 F100 that my grandfather bought new. It's a 302/3 on the tree, and my grandfather taught my dad how to drive in that truck. And my dad taught me in that same truck when he thought I was ready. I drove it through high school and loved it, even though it looked ratty (now referred to as patina) but it always ran great and never left me walking. It has been off the road sitting since 2005 and is in the barn that it has lived its entire life in. I really want to bring it back to life and hopefully teach my son how to drive in it soon.
Do it!!
not gay but that’s a beautiful story sir hope your son drives it to school to
Good score.
Your F100 barn treasure is exactly what this channel wants to see back on the road.
This would be ideal for the channel. Helping someone write history while Derek doesn't actually have to buy it. Might be worth reaching out, i would watch
you never forget these memories. the sentimental value on a rig like this makes it to where you wouldn't trade it for the world.
This is a perfect Father,Son project ! My Son and I had the same project, I had a 68 and bought a nicer 71 and he helped me thru the hole project! Nice job Derek! It's nice to see the youngin turnin wrenches not sitting in playing video games! Nice job Brad!!
My dad’s favorite saying was….. “what would you do if I wasn’t here”
Well I learned to not need or depend on anyone for anything. Lesson learned… thanks pop.
Between that and “there no rules in a fight” that’s pretty much all he taught me. Not the best but probably the best for survival in a world where nobody cares. So I got that going for me.
Hello Derek and family, I love how you are teaching the boys, I raised 4 boys and each one built their own first car. It brings back many memories. My youngest son and continued to build cars after his first and we have 2 projects in the garage now. Unfortunately my son passed away unexpected a few months ago so the projects have sat as I have a hard time finding joy in them. Please enjoy every moment you have with them.
I'm so sorry for your loss, man. That said - your boy is ALWAYS going to be with you - in your heart, and through Christ. Y'all will be together again - of that you can be sure! (And it'll be GLORIOUS!)
Yikes, Gary. I'm one of three that had to build his own. In my case, we lived in a neighborhood where that wasn't allowed, so Dad drove a '74 Vega all the way down from a business trip in D.C., and parked it in the back hedges where only the immediate neighbors could see. He got me a 2 inch Chiltons and a toolbox, and invited the neighbors over each evening after work. They would help a little, but mostly enjoy Cold Snacks and heckle me. It is a wonderful memory for me. I was the youngest son that stuck with wrenching and I know you made wonderful memories for your youngest. Condolences.
I'm sorry man.. should never have to go through that as a parent.
I’m sorry man
How nice to see Bradley working on his truck. That’s gonna be lifelong memories right there. I’ll say it again. Best show ever
nice to see some of those old fords still around
WHAT A GOOD DAD TO TEACH YOUR BOY AND GET HIM HIS FIRST TRUCK! AND TEACH US LOL ALWATS GOOD VIDEOS WISH YOUR BOY BEST OF LUCK WITH HIS TRUCK! TIMES LIKE THESE WITH YOUR BOYS ARE PRICELESS MY BOYS ARE ALL GROWN UP MISS IT
Definitely love to see more of this old ford. She sure is a beauty. Even with all those dents and such
Dents and such? Ha those hubcaps sure go nicely with some bumper stickers and a tin foil hat
Love the family involved videos. The one Jessica did was awesome. If I could have got my ex-wife to do the brakes on her car I might have kept her around. Nooo, probably not.
I love those old trucks. Glad to see you saving them one at time. It was also nice to see you teaching and spending time with your kids.
That boy don't realize how special these times are yet. Keep it up, make them memories.
44:36 - HOLY COW! Derek has many hidden talents! LOVE IT!
Best part is that you and Brad are doing this together. Both of you will never forget it in the years to come. As Always, May God Bless you and yours!
I must have been in the kitchen during the part where Brad is handed the spark plugs -- "here 'ya go!" Just now watching 10 months later...love it!
Not only do you continually keep me (literally) laughing out loud, but I am constantly learning something new. I can not wait for my son to be of that age where we too can share such memories together. Good job dad. God bless. 😁
Before we even start, I'd like to say I love that a feller been getting Jessica and the boys involved with the channel more. Proper good old fashioned family entertainment. Cheers Derek, next time I'm over your way the drinks are on me.
Get Jessica back in the intro. Lets a guy do what he loves and easy on the eyes too. She belongs there.
This takes me back down memory lane to when I was a kid and my dad made a deal with me to work off payment for his old 79 Ford truck and helped me get it back on the road to drive to high school. All these years later I still have it and wouldn’t trade it for the world. 90% of my knowledge working on cars came from working on that truck. Keep doing what you’re doing Derek, your boys will remember it fondly.
I just realized that you are the Man, multi talented. I used to play everything too, plus a good mechanic in my day. I'm almost 64 and can't play music anymore, but I can still work on my Vehicles. You are a Slinger
That's wonderful to see you teaching your son by "Hands On " .None of all that "Google it ",or "take it to a shop again and tell them to fix it right ". You are a very responsible dad by handing down the knowledge to your boy safely .
You're teaching and making memories that will last for generations. I still remember my introduction to fixer uppers some 50+ years ago with my dad. Started out learning to read wrench sizes so I could hand them to him. Later he let e turn a few to pull alternators, radiators and hoses. Wasn't long after when we were pulling motors. I'd grab the wrenches I need and dive under the vehicle when he worked top side.
Nothing can take away those times with my dad on the farm. Nothing. God bless you and your entire family, Derek.
My real dad was a spanner twirler but other than looking on, he didn’t interact with me. That was pretty typical of our entire relationship.
When I got informally adopted aged 16, my second chance dad was on the garage floor with me, teaching me how to strip a two stroke engine on my first, really rough motorcycle, and putting his head in at 2am, when I just couldn’t get it done in time, asking “egg & chips?”. I miss Benny a lot.
@@GT380man Very sorry about your rough start, but that's great news about your second chance dad stepping in to teach and coach you. Some kids today don't even have a dad or know where he is and that's sad. So much is lost when that happens.
I really dig the production and presentation work you do in all your videos. Most folk don't realize the amount of work that goes into these productions.
A guy really enjoys the humor and added touches you do in your knowledge sharing efforts. That metal selection at the end kicked ass. lol
🤘
Thanks Baba
I can tell someone has a little bit of dimebag inspiration in them very good jams to the seat cover would love to see more of you playing
I am old girl. Love this channel. I miss real engines. Thank you. 🌻🌻🌻🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
I always love the hour + long videos.. cause there's just never enough VGG to watch when you've seen them all and some videos multiple times lol
Derek - thank you for sharing your expertise and (especially) your family with all of us. Your videos are just the escape from the rest of the world that so many of us need…
What a great example of how a dad should teach his kid!! This channel is eleventymillionniner.2% better than anything on tv!
Don't forget to replace that fibre joint in the steering column, if it breaks when you're running the back roads you're gonna have a wild ride.
I remember my dad helping me with gettin my first rig goin. Nope! Never happpened. Im happy that I support a channel that teaches the youngins. Whos gonna learn if we dont teach.. Good on ya Derick. Youre worth every bit of that 7 hundred and 99 cents I send to ya a month.
You giving your some great memories. My best memories is working side by side with my dad
The revival was the first video CZcamss recommended of VGG. Got about eleventybillion people hooked since. Loved it ever since
I've been lazy and putting it off, but this video has inspired me to get started. I have a 1996 Mustang GT that has seen better days, and is currently on jack stands in my garage. My boy, just 18 and wrapping up his senior year, has been taking some shop classes and is interested in getting into mechanics of some sort. I bought him a pile of tools last Christmas that have been sitting while he takes these classes. we're getting started this weekend. Shocks/struts all around and front end rubber stuff will be the first order of business. This will be his car, although he doesn't know it yet.
Brad takes after his uncle - lot's of head nods and single word responses! Awesome relationship here with Derek and sons!
If Jessica has brothers we need to see those uncles in some videos. I've a feeling she learned about cars before she married Derek.
I wanna know the inside scoop on how/when/why Derek decided to become a CZcamsr.
Your videos are the best you never use bad language your son is very lucky to have you as a dad.
That was the only CZcams ad I think I've ever watched all the way voluntarily. Orielly did great casting Derek.
This man is like the automotive version of the Arbor Foundation...
...for every car he rolls, he resurrects one!
Small luggage trailers too.
Let’s see more on Brad’s goin to town rig love seeing a feller and his young feller learning and working together keep up the great work love the channel!!
That clip of when y'all went and first got that old girl was kinda special and definitely brought a smile to this old mans face.
Reminded me of the first time I saw my first going to town rig sitting out in a field when my grandfather and I went and drug her out of the field.
Now that’s one awesome dump run truck. Remember living in the sticks as a kid and riding with my dad to the dump with a load of glass and cans. Those were the days.
When HEI and other electronic ignitions were fairly new, I represented an ignition manufacturer and we often swapped HEI for points ignition. Points & condenser ignitions would generate 15,000 to 20,000V sparks, but the HEI (for High Energy Ignition) could usually put out around 50,000. So we always advised opening the spark plugs gap to .40-.45 which is the gap for most OE spec HEI setups. It just made them run better.
Bigger Spark Gap with plenty of Electrical Power = Bigger FireBall to start Flame Front !
Agreed. Also, with all around town driveability, is adding an "MSD" box REALLY can make a very noticeable difference.
@@billymanilli Which MSD Box ? I'm guessing U mean add a Electronic Box made by MSD into the HEI Ignition. I am Not Much of a Mechanic At All !
@@billymanilli Maybe. But he's not going to race this. For pure reliability just replace the plugs if any are questionable and gap them at .42-.45
One of the best episodes yet. As I sit here watching with my 5 year old boy he loves watching with me. Thank you for being such a great role model
Ever time I watch one of your videos it makes me want to go work on my old truck, thanks buddy. Im glad to see you've got your boy interested in doing this stuff to.
That little boy loves that truck I remember the first one I fell in love with that's cute he's a cute little guy
Would definitely like to see more on the "goin' to town rig". Why not let Brad decide on what gets done next?
Love your channel. Watching you bring the old back to life is inspiring. I'm 75 and as a younger man I loved working on the older cars and trucks.. I got lazy but now after watching you it makes me want to get off my but and use my know how to save older stuff. Thank you. Keep up the good work. We need more fathers who want to spend time with their children teaching them.
My dad had one very much like this many years ago and it was by far my favorite truck. I grew up riding in international *corn grinder* pickups, then fords and chevys from late 60's through early 70's. My very own father taught me to drive a stick on a dry lakebed in Nevada with a 71 ford. Great times. I for one would love to see more on this. My own dad passed almost 24 years ago and this brings back some great memories. Thanks!
Derek, just love your saving these old relics. I did an '87, Grand Wagoneer back in '97. Was only 10 years old, but tired with high mileage. Came with all the options available. After rebuilt 360 ci and 727 tranny, my mom and i toured the country. While in the Shell Creek Range, north of E!ly, Nevada, at my brothers ranch, we hooked up his 24' Coachman and headed north to Two Island Lake in northern Minnesota to visit friends. Then up into Ontario, took the high Trans Canada road east, down thru Montreal into Vermont. Then to Portland Maine to visit relatives then back to Florida. What a trip!
Wonderful to see Bradley working on his truck. What an education! Probably more practical than what he learned at school. And I'm a teacher.
That’s awesome you and your son fixing his truck, the way it should be
Epic!! my dad did this to me the other day on his 2008 Chrysler with no idea what he pulled off . At 79 years he pulled all the plug wires and asked me to help him. Thank goodness for the tubes.
Crying laughing, Derek does it again, lifts me out of a depression, VGG the best medication, thanks
Best one yet my friend. Thanks for being a real man teaching his son to be a real man. Love and respect brother
This is one of those smile make-it-happener episodes with the rugrat involved. Makes me look forward to my boy getting old enough to start spinning wrenches. This is even greater stuff than your usual great stuff, and I’m not kiddin ya
Old license plate floor patch really brings back memories of my youth. Back in the days when you got new ones every year.
My dad taught me how to work on engines by leaving the shed unlocked and coming home to find a brand new two day old lawn mower now devoid of any warrantee after me ripping the heads off to see how valves worked, I did however put it back together and it worked fine, I was about 12 or 13, he didn't even bat an eye when I progressed a little later to the family car, he walked into the garage saw bits off the engine on the work bench, went inside and said to the old girl that's the last time that will work, half an hour later he asked mum who taught me to drive as I took of down the drive way in it, got to love him, god bless him
I love how Bradley went to grab his Shoulder Seat Belt in the "Test Run"!
