Not having much exposure to Country I'd never heard of this one and admit I started really digging it ... until well, the <spoiler alert> final verse. Pretty much a tear in 'yer beer tune... but hey, any Corvette song's a great one!

Thanks for posting the link, made my day!

That is a neat song...the lyrics are great...

But the car a 65...66's has one red tail light on each outboard side..the car in the video has 2 red tail lights.

The red line on the tach seems to be wrong for a big block also....

I mean no disrespect to those who served, it was that it had to wind up in a fiery crash that put it over the top. Why couldn't it have just lived on forever?
