Excellent page. I found it easy to scan through, get a feel, then go back for details. Not too dense, with great spacing. Well done!

Great stuff, Grant. It's a good thing you are doing. Your kids will have a solid connection with their Grand-pappy as they see Monty come together. Good onyer, mate.

Fantastic Grant. Looks good, reads well, and conveys exactly what I think you want it to. An excellent tribute to Wayne and even to the Chev!

UBER COOL!

Grant this will be fun to watch and read! The Family connection with this vehicle is what adds so much pleasure
to your experience as well as us the readers. I'm guessing your Dad has a BIG ole grin on his mug that you have this vehicle in your hands. Fun to take a little glimpse into his life also.

I also agree that you should just make it a runner and enjoy the gift your Dad left for you to share with the Family!

That is great, Grant! I'm sure Chuey could fashion you up a real pretty new wooden steering wheel!
