//[00:00:08]
I was just out of the service thumbing through the classifieds[00:00:08]
一个写有出售旧雪佛兰的广告吸引了我的眼球[00:00:13]
When an ad that said "Old Chevy" somehow caught my eye[00:00:13]
我便停下来翻阅着这一分类广告[00:00:18]
The lady didn't know the year or even if it ran[00:00:18]
那位女士不知道车是哪年的 甚至不知道它还能不能跑[00:00:23]
But I had that thousand dollars in my hand[00:00:23]

It was way back in the corner of this old ramshackle barn[00:00:28]
那车很久以前就停在了车库里 车库很旧 都摇摇欲坠了[00:00:33]
With thirty years of dust and dirt on that green army tarp[00:00:33]
盖在车上的绿色军队油布积满了30年的尘垢[00:00:38]
When I pulled the cover off it took away my breath[00:00:38]

I felt a little guilty as I counted out the bills[00:00:50]

What a thrill I got when I sat behind the wheel[00:00:55]

I opened up the glove box and that's when I found the note[00:01:01]

The date was nineteen-sixty six and this is what it wrote[00:01:06]

The buttons on the radio didn't seem to work quite right[00:02:13]
