Great pics and great video. Glad to see the torch being carried on. It appears he realizes the significance of what he is driving. That is great.

I have two nine year old daughters and they both drive my 69 L89 Corvette. It does dissapoint me when they lift off the gas to shift into second...

just kidding...they don't really lift off the gas...

Great story on El Hemi that just keeps getting better.

We've been busy with my son Caylor's HS graduation and open house. It has been quite an emotional month. Mom was suppose to make it from Venezuela for her first grandchild graduation but she was diagnosed with breast Cancer in March. My little Caylor Jose was 3rd in his class (sorry son but I am so proud I want to share it with the world).
Here are some pictures of Caylor standing in front of his HS. Was it destiny for Caylor to attend the HS he did? You tell me.

Congrats to Caylor! I hope your mom gets well soon. I have enjoyed reading about your multi-generational Hemi. In my family, our Mopar was a Volare of which dad handed over the keys to me and my brothers. The only thing rare about it was being able to start the engine on a wet day. I would love to see more vintage photos if you come across any. Thanks for sharing with us.
