Dear Dad
I really dont know were too start?
So much has happened since you left, I know how tired you were of all the BS that was going on In and around you all of the time before you left & I dont blame blame you for running away but I miss you so very much.
I know I have let you down I'm so very sorry please forgive me.

I know your close by & watching us Ive seen you so many times watching me, I dont think you saw me when I saw you.
I had tried so hard too stop you too talk too you but you kept hiding from me, I know now it wasn't me you were hiding from as I always try so hard to do every thing just the way you taught me, but I still didn't understand why you wouldn't come home, I have tried so hard.
Recently every thing has started to just fall apart & now I need you more than ever before, I miss you so much.

After you left I started fixing your Old Ford just like you wanted too do before you left.
I kept waiting for you to come home and help me with it like we used to do.
I miss that most of all I guess working side by side with you.

I fixed the car up just like you would have wanted, I didn't fix every little thing or replace every little thing I reused as much as I could to save money just like you taught me, Its not perfect But I know you'll be happy with it.
Its ready for you now to take too all the big car shows like we used to do, But its been done now for a while and you still havnt come home.
Every one is on my **** to sell it now days as Mom needs some extra money.
So like I promised you before you left Im going to sell it for you, but I needed to show it to you first and tell you

I BUILT THIS ONE FOR YOU DAD

I miss you and Love you with all my heart
Rest in peace when your not driving it in Heaven

I must add that it takes a lot of guts for any "man" to show his feelings, let along for the public to see. I want to thank you for sharing that with me personally as i still have my dad, but he does not even acknowledge the fact on how i have passion for cars or do what i do. For that i'm sorry for him. Great job on that car and god bless you for what you've shown me today!

That is a really nice looking car, great work.

Really nice that you were able to finish building a car your father never had a chance to complete.

Respect.
