Well my wife called me today to tell me my son was going to his first school dance. He wanted one of his friends to go along with him and he told her they were both taking girls. Then he asked if she could drive them. He told her he wanted her to drive them to go get their girls and then to the dance. Then he made me proud!

He said mom can we please go in a cool car and not the mini van. My wife said I can take you in the truck, My boy said no mom, a cool car. Can you call Dad and ask to drive the Belair? Man I just smiled.My boy thinks my car is cool at age 11,... he thinks it's cool.

I dont even have a tag or insurance yet but you can bet im going to take care of that tomorrow, and that young man will hopefully always remember his first school dance and his dad's cool car!

If I had to drive it without tags to get him to that dance in style, you can bet that's what I'd do.

The kid has good taste and knows how to impress the girls.

It's time to get the wax out!
