I saw "MO" and thought, "I wonder if it's close!"

That's a little far south for me to make on a whim, but enjoy yourself and treat us to a lot of pictures.

You're probably coming down I-44, but if you want some good BBQ, go through Kansas City and I'll give you some good leads!

That would be very cool! They probably wouldn't allow mine in, anyway. It might contaminate all the nice trucks.

 

[elgemcdlf]

Open to all trucks. There is another show coming up in July. I think the 1st weekend. F100s in the Ozarks. Branson, MO

Greg Morton goofing off under 1 of the lowriders.

A really sharp truck. There is a pic later on of the engine. A 32 valve Cobra engine.

A very nice '70 that was for sale. I didn't ask price. I am confident it was not in my budget.

Sitting on a MII IFS with cut coils. The lady that drove it in said it did sit 4" lower but was undrivable when that low.

This truck had a neat shaved handle treatment. The lock cylinders & pull knobs are mechanically attached to the mechanism. To get in you put the key in the lock & turn it. Door pops open. To get out you pull the lock knob up. Mild 460, fuel cell, buckets.

This is the long distance winner. Came in from down near Austin, TX.

My wife & I met the owner of this truck who invited us out to his house. He is building a '54 Chevrolet & the El Camino in later pics also belongs to him. Sitting next to his shop is a '67 Mustang.

1956 IH Travelall. Very nice restoration.

Anderson Police provided an officer who sat on the grounds for the day. We had a few other officers that floated in & out during the day.

Greg Morton's dent he drove in from TX.

Keith's dent that he drove in from Nebraska with his son.

Your DJ with the trophies.

The engine in the '56 pictured earlier.

The choir receives the proceeds from the show.

Robert with his truck. He has an air horn from a train mounted under the bed. Yes we all got to hear it a time or two.

 

[elgemcdlf]

This slick came in from Kansas City, MO.

This El Camino was for sale. Fresh crate 350. Asking price was $7500. In the bed is a complete running 6 cyl. with manual trans that came out of his '54. He also has a complete PS system (original) for the '54 for sale.

There was a valve cover install race set up for the children. Winner of each heat received a $5.00 gift card from MCDonalds.

A nice original, unmolested, '72 that was for sale. $7500.

Pro Stock. She sure sounded nice! '66 Comet.

A really clean Grand National pulling in. In the background you can see my wife sitting on the tailgate of our Blazer.

 

[elgemcdlf]

A GT40 that showed up. I have some more pics of this car later on.

Remember this truck. It is the pretty 1 of the pair.

Jack rolling in with the only crew that made the show.

The other GT40 pics.

Jack's Crew. Won best of show last year. The truck featured on this years T Shirts.

Ok remember that Dakota? This is the truck that goes with it. You had to see this truck to really take in all it is. The front tires are larger than the rears, The moldings down the side are held on with self tapping screws, no floor in the bed. I know we all start somewhere. They left to return with a for sale sign. He was only asking $3000 OBO. My wife thought the sign was worth more than the truck. Did I mention it ran as good as it looks? A definite positive is you never have to worry about the front of the fenders rotting away. They have already done that & it has been rebuilt with Bondo.

This truck rolled in & was sold. It had a propane conversion on it. The asking price was $1000. I do not know what it sold for.

 

[elgemcdlf]

A supercharged SVT Lightning.

The propane conversion that sold.

The gentleman with his back to us is Keith. To the right is Jack (owner of the crew) & then Keith's oldest son. Starting in the back next to the truck is Robert, The guy you can barely see in the red shirt is Jesse & the final is Fred just to the left of Keith.

Best Lowrider went to this gentleman. I do not remember all the names & awards but will caption those I do. Fred wanted the entire club in the shot. The funny part to me was the entire club was standing there, all taking pics with their smart phones.

Best paint.

Best interior.

I believe this was best lifted. It went to the Highboy bump.

Long distance award went to Tyler. Dad (Robert) managed to get into the pic. Can you tell where Tyler is from?

Tyler with People's choice.

Best of show.

This gentleman showed up as everything was winding down. Nice bump. He said he had learned about the show 1/2 hr before he arrived. His brother has a '68 that is much nicer than this according to him. I don't know, his looks pretty nice.

The row of bumps that were still here at this time.

 

[elgemcdlf]

Over the hoods of the dents is the bump & further back is the slick.

 

[Beach66Bum]

Rep's for posting such a large collection of photos! Awesome!! I have to say my favorites are the trucks with the natural patina,

 

[m78]

Thanks for posting all those pictures, I enjoyed them. We don't have truck shows here, just car shows.

 

[fatherdoug]

Beautiful! Thank You.

 

[taxreliever]

Man, that 56 was awesome....after looking at the engine, is that EFI?

Also nice to have the local cops there.....nice of em.
