Find two junk cars (an old old Willys and an old Jeep Wagoneer). Cut them in half and join the back of one to the front of the other. Add length and width, blue print the engine, add shower to wash feet and ... presto -- you have the Worlds only Grand Willys ... Nantucket Edition. But I get ahead of myself.
Its the day before Easter and Ralph is practicing for tomorrows Church pancake breakfast. The delicious smell begins to settle over Northern New England. It's too much to resist...and without notice...people begin arriving from as far away as Portland, ME. With 14 hungry mouths to feed (Bonnie, Nanny, Pam, Bob, Caryn, Paul, Hannah, Morgan, Madelaine, Scott, Daniel, Thomas, Andrew and Abbey) Ralph is challenged to perfect what many already call the World's Best Pancakes.

Now that we have been fed...we are ready for the first dry run on Ralph's latest project -- a most unusual Dune Mobile --the Grand Willys Nantucket Edition. Yup, the cab can carry 3 with 10 on comfortable seats in the back. Once the windows are in it will be ready to carry 13 to the far reaches of Nantucket's beaches.
