Morning Bill,

I’m sure they have a t-shirt with a Dinosaur on it.

Here's the full 4 minute version.

My wife and I were both crying when we saw the commercial on TV. We're both 45 and have both lost a parent so it really brought out the emotions. For me especially. My Dad is why I'm a car guy and today would have been his 66th birthday. We both shared a love for these cars and I could not help but think about him while watching this.

Still gets me every time I watch it.

Gosh, that full version brings out all the feels…

GHSS,

Thank you so much for that longer version …… WOW.

That video tugged a bit.

Holiday Ride the 4 minute version:

What a lot of different emotions. Thanks for posting.

----WOW! Double, maybe even triple misty! We all comment about what GM does both right and wrong, and this is obviously one in the right category. Somebody in the tower was talking our language!......Bill S

That longer version just 'bout ran me over. #I'mNotCryingYouAre

I knew after the short version, I shouldn't watch the long one, but I just had to go and do it.
My heart goes out to you guys who have said you've already gone down this road in your life.

I don't ever want to be the one left behind. I don't believe I would survive it. It took 40 years to find my soul mate and I'm still, 30 years later, just as smitten with her as in the beginning.

Since I feel I'm among friends here, I will share how this commercial speaks to me, and why this car sat in pieces for many years.

Some of you are familiar with my maroon SS convert (Members Rides, MACACN etc). When I brought that car home from NC in September '79 my soon to be wife Karen claimed it as hers. (She was driving a Buick GS 455 4 speed when we met). Every time she left the driveway with it she laid rubber for twenty feet.
When I had it totally in pieces she asked "Are you sure you can put it back together?" I responded "If there is one thing in life I can do, it's put a '67 Chevelle together". We visited the painter, the body was in primer and she told me she didn't want to see it again until it was painted. She passed suddenly shortly after.

When I got the rolling shell back from paint it sat neglected for almost ten years while I put my life back together, retired and went after my car hobby with a vengeance, albeit with other cars. I also found love again with Jani, whom some of you have met.

Fast forward to 2018, it was time to put the maroon convert back together, with a target of MCACN 2019.
