[@DennisCollinsCarWorld]

We have confirmed from Thomas and his sister that this is, in fact, his father's Bel Air! GYSOT!

[@stephenridgway3886]

Will he sell it? Yup.

[@nickbolson4562]

So bad ass gysot

[@joebradley7317]

Truely is a SMALL world. Thomas will never sell that car cause it was his diddy's !!!!

[@keyrone77]

Outstanding ✊✊

[@rsprockets7846]

epic awesum find

[@capedwonder2833]

Love to see Thomas again dropping knowledge all over the place. He needs his own show again.

[@michaelking550]

Mr Weeks is awesome.. need too have him on more often.

[@wakeupamericaandresist2413]

Thomas is a wealth of knowledge, thanks for the information because I’m always learning from the men that were playing with cars before me , I would hire Thomas before the other guys for a real honest car , knowledge is king ( Thomas ) 👏👏✌️✌️✊✊ Nothing but respect Thomas ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍👍👍

[@rickigunter1960]

Yes..Yes..Yes.. he would be doing the world a favor to get back on KZbin and start putting out videos again

[@willemp6432]

That`s the best I have seen Thomas ever...This 👍👍👍👍goes to Thomas....

[@rickigunter1960]

Amen !

[@aproudamerican2692]

*I couldn't be happier for Thomas and his sister.* I wish we could have seen his reaction when he found out. But him just having it is good enough.

[@ArtVandelayOfficial]

He was already close to cracking up seeing it, overcome with emotion it's beautiful

[@nicholasswisher5588]

He knew deep down what he was coming after before he left the house

[@dennispond4822]

When he was looking under the hood and saw the silver paint he started to choke up a little bit.

[@wadesnider5218]

I swear. Dennis amd Tom NEED to have a weekly show together. The knowledge they put out is amazing. And Tom is funny as hell too.

[@goodoleboy83]

Call if Coffee Okay!

[@Mike583]

I enjoyed watching Misfits Garage, hate it that those shows aren't on anymore! Love your videos Dennis,great work!!!❤😎👍

[@craigmorgan4676]

Agreed shows were shit,but sure do miss them!🤯🙈👁👀👁Entertainment!🤔

[@Mike583]

@@craigmorgan4676 I disagree on your opinion of them. I was entertained & learned things about some of the vehicles I never knew. Yes some of the things were staged by the producers for more "entertainment",which I wasn't a fan of,but overall I really enjoyed watching them!

[@chuckstith838]

Learning about Thomas and his knowledge

[@mcbobly]

The show was pretty good but that idiot Tom made it hard to watch.

[@angrypanda3014]

Liked Misfit Garage better than Fast n Loud.

[@jons7771]

Love the way Thomas refers to his father a "Daddy". Southern charm and respect. Dig it!!

[@chowchowloverdave3022]

Daddy was Thomas's idol!

[@robinday2392]

Fantastic I love Thomas hes a real character with so much knowledge, another epic episode of coffee walk.

[@jonlowe8727]

Yeah great fella from what I've seen

[@bill1806]

Yes those two could talk forever. With one breath. 🤗

[@courtneesdad]

What I absolutely love about this video is the knowledge these two have of automobiles, car parts and and the friendship they have. It’s like watching two brothers. “You need these parts? I’ll give them to you”. They are like walking talking encyclopedias. This is definitely my top 3 favorite episode. Just because it was Toms dads car. God works in mysterious ways ❤️

[@izzydizzy1115]

So great to see Thomas Weeks again! Thanks Dennis for another outstanding video! You guys are true "Texas Gentlemen"

[@kennethsonier1766]

Absolutely remarkable that you found your buddy's father's car. Outstanding! This is a great segment thanks for sharing 👍☮️🇺🇲

[@rickeycompton5518]

If Thomas restores the '57 I want to see it complete

[@trashpanda2312]

I would leave it just like it is.

[@TheAslakVind]

Never restore a car like this, make it a daily driver. No bling, no buff. That would be a crime.

[@tomwinkle1597]

Whatever he wants to do with it will be excellent!

[@tomwinkle1597]

I think my Mom had a thing for Thomas back when he use to dance. Ricky Furr and I played basketball together in the 70's and he use to try to get me up there. I was scared, wish I would have done it now.

[@lewbaxter243]

Thomas has forgotten more than a lot of “car guys” will ever know! His knowledge is endless and the fact that he shares it so easily defines him as a true gentleman!

[@robbj938]

Always love when you have Thomas on. Can be long winded but he always explains things thoroughly. Genuinely a great guy. Awesome that you where able to find his dads car, and get it to Thomas. Woulda liked to see his reaction when he found out it was his dads car. Bet the man shed a few tears. And he wont be flipping that car ever.

[@mikehatch2114]

You could see that he got choked up when he opened the hood. I think he knew at that point.

[@angrypanda3014]

Thomas's ability to instantly identify parts is beyond impressive. Would be an invaluable wingman at a swap meet.

[@chazer200]

Wow!! 26 thumbs up in 20 minutes!!! HELLO ALL YOU OLD F*CKS LIKE ME! THANKS, I wish you all he VERY best tomorrow!!!

[@Jason_903]

Yessir I bet a few tears flowed I would love to have seen it amazing thing how it works out

[@jeffmosley4043]

Always fun to watch Thomas get excited when he gets to talk about cars. Happy that it was his Dad's car. Would love to see it restored. Great video. Stay safe and God be with you always.

[@rikumoi3136]

Incredible find!! Thomas is truly moved from abt 12:50 onwards, really overwhelmed.You can see him shaking & emotional. My respect to Thomas grew 1000%. Great lesson on the 57's!

[@TheAslakVind]

Dear Dennis, such a moving and touching episode. Thank you for making it so long, I got goosebumps! Please Sir; more Dennis and Thomas episodes, you gentlemen are really good together with your stories and knowledge! Respect!

[@gregorybarth930]

Just wish they could have found la quieter place the road noise makes it so hard to hear them. 😒

[@markszczepaniak5888]

It was about time to have Thomas on coffee walk, I truly enjoyed this episode . Great education lesson and great interaction, just the way he talks he has a passion just like the rest of us watching your channel. That's outstanding it turned out to be his Father's car!

[@kevinbarrett9615]

I loved this episode, Thomas, my dad was a Korean War vet too, in the Canadian forces . He was looking for work and went to the Canadian Railway for a job. The guy asked him “what have you been doing ?” My dad said “I just got back from Korea” , guy said “ over there” pointed to the hiring office. Worked for over 35 years, he said it was the only good thing about being in that war. I salute your dad and my dad and all the others who fought in the “Forgotten War”.

[@freemansgarage]

Yes, it is the "Forgotten War" & I think about it every single day. Respects to all the men who did time over there.

[@markothwriter]

My dad was in the Korean War also. People do forget about it.

[@bntrouble31]

I could listen to Thomas talk cars all day!

[@donnatalielucasheimbigner7598]

Great to see Thomas again. It is a wild moment to see him so excited about SPENDING money; he usually is so close to the chest about being excited. I sure hope that the car turns out to be his dad's. Most likely is, but really rooting for it to be. Love the amount of knowledge Thomas has.

[@jdias51]

Thomas has been the very same on every show every piece of social media he seems like a genuine good dude

[@What_do_say_think]

We had a pink and white one when I was a kid. My mom drove it like a race car. Once knocked the hubcaps off another car going around a sharp curve. Another time she took a phone pole down with it before my dad sold it. I still remember him complaining about having to pay seventy five dollars for a phone pole, lol. She was a Cracker Jack, for sure. My brother bought a race car once and had to move it asap but couldn’t get a wrecker or trailer so while he was gone looking for a way to move it, my mom jumped in it fired it up and took off down an eight lane road through the middle of town, the ten miles or so to her place doing about ninety all the way, bragging about not hitting a single red light the whole way. Tons more stories about my mom, the strongest, smartest most real hero you’ve ever met. My hero and the reason for the things I’ve done in my life that I’m proud of and a couple that I’m not so proud of. Lol. One day I’ll write a book.

[@stephen9048]

Well done Collins Crew!

[@kevinhall2266]

So happy to hear that it’s Thomas’ dads. What a find and reunion…priceless.

[@checko_o7524]

I find Thomas so well mannered and cool to be with.

[@ImgoneButUrstillHere]

Brought a tear to my eyes.. would be super special for Thomas and his sister and I'm sure he'll treasure it forever

[@ziptiejedi5658]

Always enjoy when Thomas stops in and drops some knowledge on classic cars. He seems like he would be an awesome dude to hang out and have a beer with

[@kevincutway]

Hey dennis, I have to say , i look forward to your videos on Friday . If you ever find a 1973 , charger se , blue , white vinyl top , 3 window . I’m your guy . Seeing today what you’ve done for tom and the luck that this old Chevy is his daddy’s car is nothing less than priceless. Well done

[@ducky63]

Not forgetting Mr. Weeks. Seems to be a really nice guy, always enjoyed watching him. Two guru’s gettin’ into it. Wonderful.

[@johndavey72]

The reason why l enjoy watching your show Dennis is because you never have a problem admitting that you don't know everything. And Thomas is so knowledgable . I think the 2 of you probably know all you ever need to know about these period classics . And yes, l remember Thomas from "Gas Monkey " and "Misfit " . Thankyou both for entertaining and educating us . ( You really hit the jackpot with that last show )

[@williamcooper2368]

It's a small WORLD. We sometimes forget that. AMAZING

Thomas is awesome he needs to be a regular on your show!!!!

[@poita_m7142]

OMG!!!! Didnt read the comments until I finished watching video...i got chills on this when I read it was his dad's old 57'. I would have loved to have been there to see his reaction. What would be the odds...so happy for Thomas to be reunited with his dad's car. I picked up the emotion in his voice as he was walking around it and imagining it was. Ive been around car over 30yrs and that is one of the stories you rarely hear and so happy too hear...somethings are meant to be and this one of them....great job Dennis and team. OUTSTANDING..👏 👍

We're lucky all of it was on film too.

[@christopheryoung4478]

It's nice to see Thomas again, and always will dig his history lessons.

[@rpmfreak9150]

Finding out that this car did infact belong to Thomas Weeks father,is one of the most incredible stories that I have ever seen on any car channel. Thanks for letting us in on the story Dennis, watching Thomas getting so excited about the car was one of the best moments in KZbin history in my personal opinion. I must confess that I was a huge fan of Misfit Garage, that was one of the better spin offs from fast and loud. Hell in all honesty it was the only good spin off. I started to laugh my ass off about the show" Aaron Kaufman needs a Job" but seeing how he averages, about $40,000 a week and is worth over 8 million dollars" he's the one laughing his ass off" all the way to the Bank! 😜💯

[@larrycook4632]

Like Thomas said you are the King of cars Dennis. Really enjoyed Thomas being on the show. Make sure you bring him back again soon.

[@ducky63]

With all due respect to Mr. Rawlings, you Sir have something going on there that he will never get close to. You’re one cool dude going about about business in a very cool fashion. Respect. As for the cars, oh man!

[@daviclar867]

Wish my dad was still around to watch this. He was a young gear head who built his own '57 chevy when he was 17 in 1965. He grew up on a dairy farm in Iowa, bought hot rod magazine and loved Richard Petty!

[@sportsterray66]

Hey Dennis, love your videos, and I've got a '57 story for you. Back in '81 when I was 15, my family took a trip to San Antonio from Chicago, to visit my step mother's parents. While I was there, I walked the neighborhood looking at nice old cars, and one street over, and a block down, I found an all original '57 Bel Air 2-door hardtop, black/black & silver interior, 283 Power Pack V8 with 4-barrel and dual exhaust, powerglide, power steering, power brakes, electric wipers & washer pump, Wonderbar radio, spinner hubcaps, and one piece front bumper (cars West of the Mississippi got one piece bumpers, East got the three piece ones, ask Thomas). The car was an all original one owner car that they bought new when they got married, and it was daily driven up until '79 when it was parked in the short driveway next to the house. It had 98k miles, slightly faded paint, a few seams separated on the front seat, and the driver's side vent window was cracked, but otherwise in great shape with no rust, and no accidents (all four ends of the bumpers lined up perfectly with the indentations in the body). I talked the old man into selling it to me, and said that all I could come up with was $800 (he looked surprised because he probably paid $1,800 new), because back at home I had a nice triple dark green 318 '71 Challenger that I talked my mom into buying for me for $400 (it was definitely worth at least $800), after my parents got divorced, and my mom had some money. I tried REALLY hard to convince my dad to loan me the money to buy it, and I would've sold the Challenger to pay him back. We could've pushed it over to my step mother's parents house until we could go back to get it home later, but he wouldn't even go look at it, and said "Do you really think Tilly would let me give you $800 for a car?" I was so pissed, I found my dream car, cheap, and couldn't get it. Later my dad realized it was probably a great deal, but trying to give me money with having a new wife wasn't a good idea to him. I would've been the only freshman in my high school with a nice stock black '57 Bel Air, and it would've been restored completely stock also. 😔

[@darrencasey8167]

You are a bloody top bloke Dennis. I’m from Australia and absolutely love your segments. You would be a really great friend to have. A true friend always thinks about his mates and what you did for Tomas was second to none. And to read that comment and keep us all informed that is was his father car brought tears to my eyes.

[@brianstumo8581]

Thats awsome I,ll bet you could say Dreams Do Come True ! Congrats to both Dennis & Thomas Dennis 4 finding, buying, & offering it to Thomas & Thomas being able to get his Dads car!

[@jonathanolsen7254]

That is so cool, Back in the late 50s into the late 60s my father had a towing service in Saint Paul Minnesota. There he had a 57 150 post that took on a tree and messed up the right rear bumper, The car had about 12,000 on the miles, So it came time to sell the tow yard and I asked if I could buy the car from my father I got it for my birthday Gift, It has a 283 with a 2 speed no radio but all stock also in the trunk there was tons of 57 Chevy parts that were from a 210, All the in side and out side trim to a 210 a radio hub caps 2 sets of the wright Rims, seat belts, and more parts for a 57, Man what a neat birthday gift, I am almost 70 now and still have that car. Thanks Dad.

[@dustoff1472]

I hope the car turns out to be his Dads. It took me 9 years to rebuild my junk yard find 57 Nomad (it was just the bare shell and frame) It’s not perfect, but it’s mine and with a lot of help I can get in it and drive it at a moment’s notice. My wife and I take it to a few shows each year and really enjoy just driving it. Enjoying the channel. Tks for sharing.

[@dudebud72]

I’m glad I got to see this older video! Great to see Thomas! Brings back memories when I’d travel with the kids and during nap time the misfit garage, Gas monkey , and street outlaws would be DVR. Honestly on my final days, and so enjoyable to watch

[@stevophillips4121]

Great vid's and yes Thomas is also a wealth of knowledge. I knew a brother who ran his VW salvage yard. He too was a genius on anything VW like Thomas, just seeing the part, he knew what year and model it came off of. Sadly the brother who owned the yard and a massive collection of micro buses, died young of a heart attack. The salvage yard and most of his collection was sold off, some went overseas too, well a LOT went abroad ! Miss that place and guys !
