We Took Tony's Dad to the Street Races In His 442

We pulled the 442 out so we could take Tony's dad out to the local meet and see if we can get some action on the streets.

Wow!!!!!!!!! That 442 is sweet.......Tony's dad is a drag racing legend

[@MissMidnightMaverick]

He really is!

[@jodywells7519]

You guys are awesome! How cool to ride around with your dad and listen to stories

[@andyclark3611]

We need more of Tony’s dad!

[@MissMidnightMaverick]

I agree! I have to get better at hiding cameras though 😂

[@andyclark3611]

@@MissMidnightMaverick we need to see him race tony

[@MissMidnightMaverick]

@@andyclark3611 unfortunately, he can’t drive the Olds anymore, that’s why Tony is always driving when we take him out.

[@andyclark3611]

@@MissMidnightMaverick well darn, a video of him telling about the old school stuff would be good.

[@55gaser26]

The OG Tony’s dad , we’re close in age and remember when it was all old muscle cars NA , power adders were just getting started NX lots of burnt pistons LOL, and yes we ran 4 speeds. Joe was the man in great head porter and engine builder. Great stuff.

[@chrislowery185]

Enjoyed hearing Tony's Dads stories.

[@moparmat_1933]

This hits close to home. My favorite upload from ya'll yet. Great to see Tony's dad out enjoying the car, a nice cruise down memory lane, and reminiscing of his hay day. You are very fortunate to have these experiences and make these great memories. My brother had a 1969 Olds Cutless supreme. Yellow. 455 auto. Canadian car. Myself and my dad put a lot of time into the car along with my brother. My dad assembled and installed the engine. Ran like snot when dad was done with it. Dad had a stroke in 2020 which nearly took him from us. He cant do much these days. But, he was in the shop while I was installing my engine today. For the first time in a long time he helped with a couple nuts and bolts. Sure was nice to have him in the shop again. Even better to see him put his hands on a car again. He cant speak but the look on his face, the twinkle in his eye. Today was a great day. I dont know of any bond between a father and son better than cars. Today was a great day.

[@keefespencer1173]

Before my dad and mom split up my dad and I had a great relationship and that was when I was younger than 10 years old I think I was around 7 years old to be exact as far as I can remember but when he asked my mom for a divorce he was already dating my stepmother and it was still all good when they first got together but as things progressed and time went on my sister and I moved in with our grandparents and they raised us but we all still managed to always live less than 10 minutes away from each other and I would try to spend as much time with my Dad as I could and as I grew up he was a long haul truck driver and he had to travel all over the United States for work and I would go on long hauls with him and I got to see most of the United States with him and when he wasn't working we would go drag racing and that is basically all we did and when I would ask to go fishing or hunting there was always some excuse on why we couldn't go and on the fishing part we went on vacation once a year every year to the beach and him and I would go fishing on the pier once while we were there for a week and that was it so his answer to why we didn't go fishing was we do go fishing when we go to the beach and as I got older it got worse because basically what was happening was my stepmother was happy as long as my dad was spending time with her and her kids but she made sure she ruined his relationship with his kids and ever since I was a teenager his and my relationship has went down hill and it just got worse and I've tried to fix things between him and I but at this point I don't see anything fixing anything and everytime I see him in public he tells me to call him but the phone works both ways and he has never called me the entire time I've had a cell phone and I've had one for 20 years now and he's never called me but expects me to call him and we still live less than 10 minutes away from each other til this day

[@nobuddyimportant2106]

I'd give anything to hang with my Dad again. Been gone 26 years already. You're a good son, you have a great Dad. Thanks for showing that, brought back some great memories.

[@richardsmith-qy6vl]

I can't Waite to see this I really liked the video when Tony took his dad for a ride in his 442 it made me really miss my dad.

[@billyray8062]

Tony, great to see your dad and you enjoying his beautiful 442. Tess, you were killing it shifting and making faces. Great video.

[@shawnkratochvil7211]

My dad bought a 70' 442 new straight off the delivery truck, it was more of a blue green & white. Loved thar car. Tried like hell to find it when he passed.

[@jayhughes2418]

Love the Telstar wheels on the 442

[@kennethchapman9564]

Tony's Dad's stories remind me of back in the day street racing. I had six different muscle cars before I turned 20, first car was really more of a cruiser that I street raced, 68 Mercury Cougar XR7, traded it for a K code 65 Fairlane Sport Coupe hardtop with a straight front axle and t-10 and 5.56 rear gear that would top out at 100 but get there really quickly. 75 Mustang 2 that I put a hi-po 289 with cam headers and torker intake that I cut hole in hood for carb to stick thru, embarrassed a lot of trans-am owners in that thing, Boss powered 70 Maverick that was undefeated with a 69 440 R/T charger and 70 Chevelle SS 396 among many victims. 1970 Torino Cobra, used to wind third gear to 97mph, beat a 70 Big block Corvette in that, the look on his face. The one I got just for I went in the service a 66 Mercury Cyclone GT with a 427 and it was the Holman and Moody edition with fiberglass hood, fenders and deck lid and aluminum bumpers, never did race it and sold it while in the service.

[@erikrundberg7135]

What a simple fun night of just hanging out with a little cruizin and listening to Tony's dad while reminiscing his memories..Hello Tony hello Tess love the fun as always. Cowboy NC

[@robwaters2065]

That's a very nice 442 , my mother had one when I was a kid . Her 442 had the side stripes on the vender

[@jamesharris2615]

Love this❤! Still wish my dad was still alive to go cruising with... Just some friendly advice, show your dad he doesn't have to use that messy, sloppy paste wax/polish anymore to get or maintain a nice shine. Any decent product in a spray bottle works just as good, if not even better.

[@thegooniverse495]

Thank you Tony for the good thumbnail approval

i loved this video! Tony, your dad is awesome. 👍

[@quickdeuce]

Tony and his Dad cruz'n main together was so cool. In my day, the early to mid 1960's, cruz'n main looking to see who was out and cruz'n to be seen we called 'dragg'n tha gut'. Dunno why it was called that, it was a saying coined long before my time but we'd pick up our folks rotary dial phone, call our friends and simply,, "Hey Donny, I'm headed out to 'drag tha gut',, wanna bring your Chevy out, join in and see if we can get a race or two going?". Donny had a 1953 Chev, straight axle out of a Falcon pick up under the front, balanced and printed 283 punched to 301ci and a Muncie 4speed that for the day was pretty quick. Me? I had a '53 Ford, 6 cylinder, 3 speed on the column,, it was a dog.
