I'm going to kick off the actual pic posting starting with yesterday's pick-up, transport and staging of my Grandpa Carl's 1951 Chevrolet 3100 (Gdads51) done with the the help and assistance of Steve (KCMongo).

Just a short story to go with the pics. This as the first time in 10 years that the truck has been out in the light of day, actually rolled on pavement and being prepped for showing off at the MBA Roundup.

Was a big grinning moment (or three) to get it out and with Steve's help (can't thank you enough), get it staged at his shop for showing off this weekend.

Hope you enjoy the pics! yahoo
