Thank you for showing us your garage. I just dig stuff like this. Probably because my father never cleaned up his, so I always had to work outside, pay someone to rip me off fixing something, or pass on an entire project priced to sell. Now I inherited the garage and the tools scattered around. At the beginning of the pandemic I also got a free living room set that is taking up space next to the snowblower I landed cheap. My goal is to clear out space, organize (while I hit up old estate sales and flea markets for more tools that were built back in the day to last, not the newer stuff made next to where Mall Wart gets its house brand), install old gas station cabinets I got from a garage I cleaned out for an old friend who didn't want 'em, and put up some shelves to house my collections. I never really "collect", I just buy what's too cheap to pass up and suddenly I have another collection :) Then I'll paint some "petrolina" signs on the remaining wall space, I hope some of those Day Glo poster paints may give me a kind of "neon" look with the industrial lights I want to wire in--that will require some experimenting. But it will be all worth it to finally have a climate-controlled space I can work in day and night. Keep rockin', guys.

I just stumbled on this channel and I must say that this garage tour was a real treat. Your dad is one cool dude and so is your Grandfather...his cars are great too. Super to see California Car Kulture passed-down through 3 generations. Back in the 90's, I daily drove my ratty old 59' GMC 100, 57' Packard Clipper and even had 62' Olds Cutlass coupe. The Packard was gloss black with those awesome batwing tail light and moon eyes hubcaps...found it in some lady's back yard one day looking over fences, with a bunch of Gophers living in it...payed $500, managed to get it running and drove it for 4 years...that thing was a reliable surf machine. I'm feeling inspired by your videos...time to find another old car...maybe something that runs this time ;p. Thanks for the uploads!

So Im probably maybe 10 years older than your dad. I found your Mustang video where you went over your new exhaust. I was impressed that a young guy was into the old muscle car scene. Nice Mustang. Then I saw the vid of the other guys Camaro with the roll cage... And Im thinking these guys are coming up the same way I did as a teen in the early 70's. I saw the old school stuff sitting in the garage in some of the vids and I was thinking your dad was into it. Now I see where you got it from. But it warms my heart to see young guys keeping it alive. I was trying to get my son set up with a Harley after college. We were just ready to put money on a Sportster when he got a job offer in NYC. He went off to live in Williamsburg and Bed Sti and met a hippie girl... Now they are out in Portland and hes more likely to be into an electric vehicle than anything with a V-8 and a stick. My first car was Galaxy 500 with a 390, I had a 63 Buick Riviera... A few 60's Vetts including a 69, 427 convertible... One car I wish I had back was the 72 GTO. My wifes commuter now is a Camaro SS convertible... I dont knopw what Im going to do when they force the EV's on us but Im not going to be happy. I subscribed so keep up the good vids...
