gather around children we have a story to tell this is my sister and I and this is our dad this is our dad with us so you can get an idea of why we're so weird we really wanted to surprise our dad for his retirement so he came up with a really crazy idea let's get him a car that he loved growing up and often regretted selling a 1966 Pontiac LeMans sprint 6 the overhead cam principle is used extensively in racing engines both the big Indianapolis type cars and in sports type cars like the Ferrari so he began our hunt for this car now I don't have any footage of that so here's a baby chef to keep your eyes busy while I finish this part of the story now it took us a while but we finally found one so we made an offer the seller accepted and the rest went down like this all right so I won't eat the car this is Bryan he's nice enough to drive me this distance to go get this name your lyft driver Oh could you imagine how expensive it would be for that that would be ridiculous I would want 5 stars I know so we're going to get the car great there she is we got her hooray all right time to head back and then a couple days this is gonna be in his hands here we go okay so battery died on the drive back but no big deal however hair is its new home for the next couple of days and then off to Kansas City on Saturday good morning so it's early but today's the day yay excited but it's time to hit the road so come on I made it to Kansas City sorry I totally forgot to turn on my GoPro for the drive out so I'm sure just cut to this and my heart is beating out of my chest I'm freaking out because we're about to do this here in just a little bit here's the deal though we're gonna we got him and add from a 1966 magazine for this car and framed it and he's gonna think that that's his gift and then the surprise kind of comes after that also I don't think that I have a method to get from this part of the video to the next one so it may just jump cut right to him so for as long as we're gonna remember you've been our hero laughter you've worked incredibly hard your entire life not only for yourself but to make an amazing life for us mission accomplished and now you're retiring for many retirement from any retirement seems like an end five decades of work and routine are coming to a close but as we thought about what to get you we chose to think of it as the beginning this is the opportunity to explore the amazing life you've created for yourself to be carefree with endless possibilities just as you were before you started your career in this package we got you something to remind you of that you've often talked about the car that got away year 1966 sprint sick funny extrinsic you know that's one that's the first one we grow without having yeah but I saw that let's just to prove that it's the real deal how did you find it took a while well here we go after some research we found that the version of this car that you own is incredibly rare just like you are and to put it in perspective you can scour the internet for years and never see one for sale and it would take that long to to find someone even remotely like you after some searching we were able to find this actual magazine ad for a spread stairs we want to hang this someplace that you when you see it you remember that you now have the same freedom you had when you were that age a lifetime of smiles to roll up now that there's a page - oh the reason you won't see us friend 6 for sale is because they're so rare and also because the only one that was for sale in the United States is the last one in the last year you are joking they have to build on here's the key dead get in I can't believe we pulled this up I know right oh my god okay you
