This son fulfilled his terminally-ill father's wish to see the new Corvette in person

Larry Webb is a lifelong Corvette enthusiast, and wanted to see the new Corvette in person. Unfortunately, he was diagnosed with bile duct cancer after turning 70. And, as his son wrote, his time "is very limited" following failed chemotherapy.

So his son reached out to GM, and they granted Larry a private viewing of the new C8 at his local dealership a day before it was released.

His son noted in a Reddit post that "this was a total surprise to my dad. He knew he was going out on Friday but he didn't know where or what for. I invited all of his friends to the event and it was amazing." Watch his video of the day below.

Since the car was only a prototype, it couldn't be driven. But Larry got a behind-the-scenes tour that he certainly deserved and definitely enjoyed.
