    I came across this video I didn't even know existed. If any of you remember the stories shared by our own "flathead youngin" you will recall his long winded interesting stories of his grandpa.
    If any of you made a trip to the Cinematic last year, you may very well have met this gentleman.
    Jeff told me he may get his grandpa to show up. I was hoping I had the opportunity to me him. What a treat it was! I need not say more other than this may be a repeat here I missed. But it is well worth watching ten times, Let alone just once. Grandpa just cracks me up!

    I had to laugh listening to Gramps yelling " I have all my cars running and Jeff can't even get one god damn hot rod running"
    He told me stories, when I met him, about running moonshine.
    I could listen to him for hours. He'll even make up a few stories if you let him.

    Awesome video... really enjoyed it! Reminds me of my own grandpap who passed away this July... He knew EVERYTHING about anything old...cars or otherwise... and he'd tell you anything you wanted to know, in detail, and without error, and in that way only an old timer can... Makes me wish I would have listened to every story just a little bit closer and asked just a few more questions...damn I miss him!

    Old guys rule, I love just hearing them talk!
