Kid: “It’s a ‘55, Dad; it’s a classic.”
Dad: “It’s a heap.”
Not sure if I recall that. But did you ever see the video for country singer Alan Jackson’s song “Someday”? In the vid he’s restoring a 57 Chevy. Beautiful how it ties into him wanting to get back with his girl. Video link at the end.

“Someday” (lyrics)
She looked me in the eye and said it’s over
I can’t take this heartache, anymore
She said don’t tell me lies and try to please me
I’ve heard it all so many times before
And I took her by the arm and said don’t leave me
There’s nothin’ in this world, I wouldn’t do
Just give me time, I’ll be the man you’ve needed
She said I wish that I could take that, for the truth
And I said someday, I’ll get my life straight
And she said it’s too late, what’s done is done
And I told her someday, she said I can’t wait
‘Cause sometimes someday, just never comes
She said all I’ve ever wanted, was to love you
And somewhere deep inside me I still do
But now I think it’s time I stopped believin’
‘Cause I’m never gonna see a change in you
And I said someday, I’ll get my life straight
And she said it’s too late, what’s done is done
And I told her someday, she said I can’t wait
‘Cause sometimes someday just never comes
Sometimes someday just never comes

Cool song; I also remember Alan Jackson’s “Crazy ‘bout a Mercury”, and that c.1952 black flathead V8.
