y'seguy, I know how you feel, as do many other on here. There isn't a day that goes by, that i don't think of my Pop. (I lost him January 9th, 2000) That being said, you will never get over it, trust me. What you WILL do, however, is get AROUND it, after time, and continue on, like you know he would have wanted you to. Whenever I find myself getting melancholy because my dad isn't around anymore, i think of what he would do and say, if he thought I was wasting one minute, one second, of my life moping just because he isn't quite as easy to talk to as he used to be. I know he would have had, at the very least, some harsh words, and told me to "Man Up" and keep going. I have a feeling your pop and my pop were sorta the same person...
Just remember him in what you to did together and p*** on his hunger for cars on to the next generation
I know how you feel lost my pops 33 years ago and still miss him. But lost my mom last week so now I get to talk to both of them in my head.
