    I am a BIG fan of your work.

    Your script lettering skills blow me away. Beautiful. I wish I could freehand like that.

    I'm sure Pops is proud.

    I lost my dad years ago Edweird I inherited his first NEW car. I have left it pretty much as he had it. Other than wheels and tires I know he would approve. But when any member of the family takes it out we all feel him pushing the pedal down! Enjoy EVERY MILE Ed I know I do!

    Nice touch, just went back to Mo. last week to visit my dad for what maybe the last time. I know it's life and all but sure was a very long drive back home. I'm sure your's likes what you have done to "his" truck.

    Nice tribute and I feel your dad would approve. Keep the truck forever and every time you drive it he will be sitting right there with you enjoying the ride.
