Default What a GREAT DAY!!

This is the first run of my 34 tudor in 47 years! Last time I drove it I was 15! (now 62). Thanks Barners for all your help so far. Just wanted to share this video, My son Jason behind the wheel. Special thanks to Old Ron!

Other classic lines.

"second maiden voyage" How many guys have fallen for that one on their wedding night?

"I don't wanna make it too long, I wanna post it on facebook" Damn facebook we wanna go for a proper ride, not the instant version.

"Hit the RED button" OMG WW Three?

FE26>>I will post a longer version once the car is registered and legal, maybe add music! On youtube there is a cool vid of a 34 truck (RHD) with music. Almost got to go to Sydney when I was in the Navy. Ken

Wow, brings me back to our first run with the '38. Nothing sounds like a flathead. Keep that kid driving and appreciating it. He's our future.
