    You can tell he really loves that car. But I think the fact you gave it to him means way more than the car itself. Great job Craig!

    Sadly once I got to that point in life where I could share my good fortune Grandparents and even my Dad were gone. But my children have benifeted with some support along the way and it makes a Mom & Dad feel great to share. Help out those special family members people, today's society dictates most kids even with a strong education and a great work ethic will need a little help along the way.

    Just a wonderful video. I am blessed to be able to give my mother my version of the Thunderbird. I'm taking her to Hawaii next February with my family. She visited Hawaii over 50 years ago and thought about living there. When she returned from vacation she went on a blind date with my Dad.... The rest is history. He passed away last year. This is my way of saying thank you to her.
    Side note - I believe the floor button is the bright headlights.
