Dad had that old car smell

It was a lifelong dream of mine to buy my dad his dream car and surprise him with it. He worked very hard to support his family but never had extra money to save enough to make his dream come true. He was a good man and he deserved to have something to be proud of aside from his family. Unfortunately, he passed away before I was grown enough to be in the position to make it happen. I’ve spent several years looking for the right car that I felt like he would have chosen. This weekend I drove 8hrs up to New York and back to make our dream come true. When I opened the door of the car I almost fainted from shock when I climbed inside and it smelled exactly like my dad. He was an auto body man and a mechanic. So he always had that “old car smell” when he came home from work ❤️ That was a huge comforting bonus that most people could never understand.
