My story is the opposite. I was dating this girl and then I dumped her and bought a Corvette. Still brings tears to my eye every time I see that beauty in my garage.
Sold his car, married a woman with 2 kids, adopted and raised them. Whew! This is so beautiful! Sir, you deserve every blessing that is poured down on you! True definition of “love’em them like my own” 🙏🏽💯
@Oliva Gina It's a joke. I was kidding. Someone said it's a crime that's is not a 4 speed. Why would he want an automatic. Sorry if I upset you. I was trying to make people laugh in these rough times.
"I dont know but we'll find out tomorrow morning when the police look for it!" Love his humor and so precious he doesnt know it's for him yet!!! Wonderful.!! Thanks for sharing this joy.
This man is a gentleman. He took in 2 kids that he didn't have to and loved them like they were his own and then they gave back to thank him for all he'd done🙏🏽😊

It is so very touching to see the scene when she handed her the key n said " I love you dad" when they were hugging. Yes, the 40 years of his caring them in solidly proven father hood is unbelievably invaluable. And the return of his dreamt car which he sold 40 years before he married her mother has been a truly right gift. What an expression of sincere love exchange between them !
My stepdad raised me and my brother and I remember he had to sell his white ford bronco because we needed money. So one day I will get him another one.
Sold my 72 vette in 75 to put my wife through college.. two years later I caught her cheating on me with a classmate...dumped her and bought a De Tomaso Pantera L.
Could you imagine. The day he sold that car. Watching it drive away, knowing that he was doing the right thing, letting go of something so special. No way he could have imagined, one day. The very children he sold that car to take care of would one day bring it back to him. Beautiful
I ain't even part of it and I choked up. I understand what they mean. My step dad means the world to me. Maybe one day i will do something special for him for everything he has done
PlanetJigobotTV He must be mistaken. He said he bought it on Friday the 13th of December 1972. I looked at the calendars from 72 and 73, and neither of those years had a Friday the 13th in December.
The way he smooches "her" on the head and shakes with pure love/enjoyment/excitement... Worth every second of watching! Thank you for sharing this post and a beautiful moment in your family history. If this is the only day he has to drive it.... he has this day! Much respect and love!
Emilia Reyes I’m a step father. I can honestly say my step son is the best thing that happened to me. He gave me a sense of love and meaning that I could of only imagined before meeting him. Maybe you know that feeling already. If not hopefully one day you do and then have the sense to remove this hurtful comment.
On Christmas Day 2011 I gave my dad a new car as a gift. A Honda Jazz. It was one of the most powerful and emotional moments of my life. Luckily he survived to enjoy a year or two with it as he passed away on 10 august 2014.
I'm adopted kid. In a sense I wished I could've bought another rumble seat car for dad. I'm going to try to restore the last family home. I have to take it down to the bones. He passed on father's day in 94. I helped build- remodel a trailer. Took out 3 exterior walls. That was in 1979. It's in a flood zone & hate to sink that kind of money in it but, I can't find another place to live except on that property. I'm living in a trailer next door
Being a parent is more then genetics. For you: “Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself. They come through you but not from you, And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.” -Kahlil Gibran Full poem: www.goodreads.com/quotes/115825-your-children-are-not-your-children-they-are-sons-and
Such a special surprise. You can tell how much they love him and how great of a father he has been all of these years. He’s a special man and to know he stepped up to be a father and raise two children as if they were his own just shows how great of a man he is.
This guy is what I would a real man. The real dad didn't man up but this guy did man up and took care of and loved these kid's as if they were his own. In my mind that take's a truly awesome man to do that. My hat's off to you sir and have fun and burn some rubber with that Vett.
Yup. Exactly what I was going to say. That was that young man's excitement in his eyes like, "hey, let's go for a drive in my sportscar!" And saying it to his best girl as they drove into the sunset. 🌄
I can identify w/ love of a car. I’m a 76 year old lady who still yearns for the 1968 Pontiac Firebird 400 that was my first car, Autumn Bronze w/ white leather interior. Gorgeous. I had to sell mine too, but occasionally I browse the Internet for that model & color car & remember what a blast I had.
This video made a full grown man cry. This gentlemen reminded me so much of my wife’s grandfather that passed this last year. He was close to me and will always be. I love how he noticed the car from a distance and gave a life experience that was from in his mind. He at the time probably gave this car up for his responsibilities and didn’t question it at the time. The fact that you could genuinely see the love and the appreciation when he realized it was his brought tears to my eyes. This gentlemen’s exactly what we need more of. He deserves this car a thousand times.
I saw it on a different cropped version of this video, but the story I saw is that he sold it to be able to propose to his children's mother, then adopt them soon after. The license plate is YDHT standing for "You Didn't Have To". He loved them so much he took them on as if he didn't know a day without them, and I'm so glad he was able to have this amazing return of that same love and care. I don't even call my mom "step", she's mom through and through. It takes a very special kind of person to love like that, each and every one deserves to be given this piece of beautiful Karma.
Any man can be a father but it takes someone special to be a dad. I'm crying tears of joy feels like as if I was there, and You can tell from his story how he loved his car. He has beautiful heart but what gets me is his generosity and unselfishness.
Qaraami: your comment just hit me right through the heart man. 😞 You see I had been a father to my sons but I think was not a good dad, and so now I’m reaping what I’ve sown. Videos like these make me realize where I fell short. This man is a lucky person and dad. He raised his kids the right way. I’m so jealous, it makes me cry.
My Dad has been in my life for 32 years this April. In fact, he called my mom for their first date on his birthday: April 26th. I found the 1968 Plymouth Road Runner model kit and I will build it for him this Christmas. He said 7 months ago that it was his dream car.

A beautiful car and a beautiful video. Thank you for sharing this. Many people might not be able to buy their parents a car, or a house, etc, but it’s the heart and meaning behind it that matters. We can all find ways to express our gratitude to those who gave us everything. I hope videos like this inspire people to find a special way to say “thank you.”
I grew up in the passenger seat of my Dad's Candy apple red 1975 Corvette Stingray. It now proudly sits in my My Brother's garage, and we take it out for rides. I hope it stays in the family forever
The way every older guy turns into a young kid again on Christmas morning when they get handed the keys always pulls at my heart ❤️ love this kind of stuff gift it forward!!!
WOW A Big Shout Out to All Step fathers. It isn't easy taking on another man's children but You did it and You deserve everything they did for You. Congratulations 🙏
Putting the last of the touches on my dads 1976 corvette I’ve been restoring for the past 3 years. He parked it 82 when my older brother was born and has been sitting since. Seven days until he turns 75 and I can’t wait to see his face
Made it even better that as soon as he saw the car from distance he was drawing how stunning ur is and how much he would love to have one again, that made it even more special The cat is amazing but for that man , knowing that his partner loves how he treated her kids and that they love him as a dad will be the biggest blessing ever for him. Truly lovely.
This is awesome. The man in my life I call dad is not my dad by blood but has been a father to me all my 38 years of life and will always be my dad. Happy fathers day to all the fathers out there
That's not a car it's a rocket on wheels! When cars had looks and character, Great gift for a wonderful human being, from the sound of it. A great daughter too.
What a great video. When ur great dad realized it was his, I started to cry. That never happened watching a RUclips video. He is a lucky dad to have kids that really know how to pick out a gift. Much better than support socks.

Love the shot at 5:14 where he's throwing the devil horns out of the window!! Something tells me Pops was a bit of a rebel back in the day! 🤘🏻🖤
What a great story and beautiful family! 🙌🏻🥰🥺😭
I lost my dad due to cancer, when I see this video I just wish I gave him something before he passes away.... RIP dad
You gave him the happiness of having kids that loved him👍
Im sorry to hear that bro seriously.
im sorry to hear that man....
Rip
Ali Alghawwas same. I’d give my dad everything I have just to see him again
The way his eyes lit up when he stepped on the gas is such a genuine reaction
Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.
A beautiful car and a beautiful video. Thank you for sharing this. Many people might not be able to buy their parents a car, or a house, etc, but it’s the heart and meaning behind it that matters. We can all find ways to express our gratitude to those who gave us everything. I hope videos like this inspire people to find a special way to say “thank you.”
I am 51 and this brought tears to my eyes.....God Bless you all.
I’m 71 yrs old and still have my 72 vette same green as this one and this story also brings tears to my eyes
Gazza Dazza you need not cry.
USHO LATS it is a very sentimental one dear....
i have 23 and cried too. This is beautiful!
I was doing mostly OK until I saw the license plate. YDHT...You Didn't Have To. Good stuff, thanks for sharing
Literally pause the video to look at the plate and figured that out as well.... Yeah... Motherfuking onions
I never get exhausted from listening to the corvette sound😍😍
hello Terry how are you doing 😊
Oh my God I started crying…how emotional was that and how lovely of his daughter to buy him his old car back.
Damn you for making me cry! I hope he drives the hell out of the vette!
I knew I wasn't the only one with leaky eyeballs😓
Lol next video " "dad burning off the tires on the vette"
Beautiful reaction when the keys were handed over, just beautiful.
Seriously, ive watch this video 50x and i cried 50x also, that old man are so blessed to have a beautiful and lovable daughter. I miss my Grandpa
Bloody hell, I'm a 67yo Aussie watching this and I just teared up when she handed him the keys... Special moment..!
you can tell how much he loved his car but also how much he loved his family, it, is to see he got a old friend back
its like han solo getting back into millenium falcon
I grew up in the passenger seat of my Dad's Candy apple red 1975 Corvette Stingray. It now proudly sits in my My Brother's garage, and we take it out for rides. I hope it stays in the family forever
The way every older guy turns into a young kid again on Christmas morning when they get handed the keys always pulls at my heart ❤️ love this kind of stuff gift it forward!!!
Sometimes the karma bus is green and growling and absolutely beautiful.
Aweh
WOW A Big Shout Out to All Step fathers. It isn't easy taking on another man's children but You did it and You deserve everything they did for You. Congratulations 🙏
Я из Кыргызстана.и я не понимаю по ан глийски,да тут понимать нечего.молодцы родные ,обрадовали отца.я аж прослезился.У важайте родителей,они Святые👍👍
Putting the last of the touches on my dads 1976 corvette I’ve been restoring for the past 3 years. He parked it 82 when my older brother was born and has been sitting since. Seven days until he turns 75 and I can’t wait to see his face
Wish I had a dad that gave reason to be rewarded like this. Not all of us hit the dad jackpot. This was very sweet. Bless you all.
All you can do is try to do better as a parent than he did...
This video makes me miss my dad even more r.i.p pa
I agree lost my dad in 2003
Lost mine a few months ago.
jon parker rip.. bless you brother. I'm sorry for your loss.
Me too. My dad loved muscle cars. RIP dad 2016
I lost my dad at 14
Made it even better that as soon as he saw the car from distance he was drawing how stunning ur is and how much he would love to have one again, that made it even more special
The cat is amazing but for that man , knowing that his partner loves how he treated her kids and that they love him as a dad will be the biggest blessing ever for him. Truly lovely.
The look on his face is priceless and then he drove it. That stingray still rumbles well. Beautiful car
This is awesome. The man in my life I call dad is not my dad by blood but has been a father to me all my 38 years of life and will always be my dad. Happy fathers day to all the fathers out there
The kid is cracking me up. “Damaged Spot?!” 😂
That's not a car it's a rocket on wheels! When cars had looks and character, Great gift for a wonderful human being, from the sound of it. A great daughter too.
I cried. You could see his delight. What an honour.
hello Tom how are you doing 😊

@@allysonhanks9159 nice to meet you this afternoon :)
@@wellticklemytummy I hope you don’t mind me writing you? Looking for new friend so if you’re interested.
Classy man, Classy daughter
Thank you! He's a great dad and deserves the best!
And GREAT CAR !!!
I seen hundreds of these surprise cars , this one has to be my favorite.....
What an amazing family. Thank you for sharing this experience.
What a great video. When ur great dad realized it was his, I started to cry. That never happened watching a RUclips video. He is a lucky dad to have kids that really know how to pick out a gift. Much better than support socks.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
4:30 the nostalgia that must have been racing through his mind
