Here is A few nice trucks from a show I went to this weekend -- a local car show in Biloxi MS, put on by the MS Coast Mustang club, benefiting several local charities, one being Feed My Sheep for homeless people.

A gorgeous 1959 Apache orange. About as bright as my green 53 In the background. 😂😂😂



Feel free to contribute and add truck pictures as you see them.

The Coast had another event this weekend called Scraping the Coast. I did not go but some nice trucks in there. Here is a link from a local new show. Scraping the Coast

Hoping to get some good pictures at the next show I am trying to go to on Sept. 9. I have been on the road to Denver and Houston this year (for good reasons) and have only been to one show earlier in the year.

Ok, so I’m in Houston visiting the grandson this weekend. My son and I decided to go to a Cars and Coffee in town. They highlight different cars and were highlighting Ferrari’s this month. Talk about a wide range of cars from classics, EV’s to expensive super cars. I only saw one 1982 Chevy that looked very good definitely all original and was for sale (picture below) and according to my son a 1.2 million super car also 2 Hennessy cars and who knows how much they were. All I can say is out of my league!! I’ll stick to my classic truck and am already planning my next one.

Went to a small car show on the Coast put on by the Knights of Columbus. Probably 125 entrants. A lot of good looking trucks and cars. I am going to try to minimize other vehicles unless an overall picture.

Few more pictures. I know I’m not the only Southern Bolter who goes to shows so feel free to add pictures here if you get out. Let’s see ’s

Not your typical Friday at the harbor in Long Beach Ms. But it is a couple days just before Cruisin the Coast. A lot of trucks gathered.


Long Beach Harbor

Was at a local car show “Rumble in the Camp”. About a hundred vehicles there. One guy in a beautiful truck won best paint and best of show. Now the bad news it was a 55 ford truck. 👎😂😂 Oh well still a fun day! Good conversations good friends.

More pictures.

Few more.

I went to a nice small show over in Diberville Ms (north side of Biloxi today. It was a fundraiser/show for Franklin Grahams Operation Christmas Child. I attached a link below in case some one is interested. Last year they sent 208 MILLION shoeboxes all over the world to children with small toys, gifts/necessity items and information to spread the gospel in these countries who may never hear it. I will post a few pictures later.

Samaritans purse

Ok, not too may trucks so I have a couple of general pictures then some truck pictures. The blue 1953 GMC won 1st place in the trucks.

Two more

So I was out today at a car show in Gulfport Ms. It’s a fundraising car show to raise money for missions, Cruisin for Missions put on by Crosspoint Church. More than 110 vehicles but I’m only taking picts. of trucks.

More from today.

Few more.

Thanks for sharing. Some nice eye candy and its always good to see what others are doing. Nice shots.

Thanks, I like seeing how others have done their trucks I know I'm not the only one who gets out with their truck. Let's see y'all 😳

Went to a car show today in Waveland Ms, the name was “Gnat Nationals”. This was their 26 yr of putting on this show. For those that may not know a gnat is an extremely small flying bug along the coastline that has an irritating bite. Luckily the wind was blowing about 25 mph along the coast so no gnats today. This show was raising money for CASA, court appointed child advocates in Ms. Here are some pictures from today.

More!

More still.

Nice looking rides. Thanks for sharimg.

Got out today to a bazar and car show at Sacred Heart Church in a community called “Dedeaux”. Try pronouncing that one. It sounds just like de-dough. Easy😂. Not very many trucks but everything was judged together just as top 15 vehicles except for the few top awards. Still a fun day saw some friends I have not seen in a while.

I was in Ocean City Maryland a couple weeks ago. They were having a City wide car show. I spotted this C10 in a parking lot. Owned by a younger guy. The truck wasn’t anything special but the inline six with a big turbo was worth a second look

NOW, that’s an eye catcher. I have been thinking a turbo on a 4.3 V-6 would be neat.

I took a road trip today from Gulfport Ms to Foley Al to a 7th annual car show at OWA. I didn't take my truck because of the interstate speeds and almost the 2 hr drive. I did notice abut 8 or 10 enclosed trailers there as i was leaving. They had more cars than trucks but still had a few good looking ones. Take a look at the pictures including the very good original looking blue GMC.

Just a few more.

Tks, good looking stiff

Some great examples. of what Folks are working on. It looks like a great venue for a car show, local shops and restaurants are always a plus.

We took in a local show today and had Little Blue Truck's cousin show up. A 37 GMC was there also. Belongs to a gentleman named Rob. Said it spent many years tucked away in a barn.

Wayne, that a great picture! Rob's '37 and Little Blue look right at home.

Nice 👍

Was over in Houston this weekend, my son grandson and I went to a Hot Wheels Legends show. Just a few old trucks but a lot of chrome, and supercharged engines. Oh well still fun with the family. My sons looking forward to coming home for Cruisin the Coast.

Even thought it was the day before Cruisin the Coast I went to a cruise in at a local speed shop. There were over 500 vehicles including some unusual ones I suppose in town early. They had a very good looking COE , dark blue and pretty sure it was a diesel and a couple of good looking Surburbans. Check out the pictures. I have to shrink them down first the first 2 were over 5mb.

And then some more.

Donald, you never fail to impress. I love the GMC Camper.

Hard to pick a favorite. I like them all. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice! Great photos. Thanks for posting.

Craig, yep I’ve seen that camper twice already with an older couple looks like they are enjoying themselves.

I saw that camper featured on 'My Classic Car' with Dennis Gage this past week. he was a cruising the coast a few years ago.

Ok ya”ll, been a while since I posted but went out this evening to a Cruise in at a new restaurant I been wanting to try. The food was good but by the time I got back outside it was too dark except for the one picture I got. They turned lights on later but oh well. Still felt good to get out. Been really busy with work and grand babies.

That looks like a good turn out. Our local shows haven't started up yet.

Yep, this was the second local one but I missed the first a couple of weekends ago.

72 out and about

That’s a good lookin’ truck!

Ran errands in Skyline yesterday in the '73 Cornbolt. Charlie is still buried in the garage ... Somewhere ...

GREAT looking Cornbolt 👍

Thanks. Got the actual Stovebolt out this week...

Took Little Blue to a charity car show today.

Wayne67vert, nice truck. I really enjoy the charity car shows. 👀’s like the weekends here are booked in April for shows and I will be in town. Yea!! More picts. to follow.

Little Blue is always a crowd pleaser.

Went to a show/fundraiser for missions Saturday. They had a pretty good turnout, I was #82 and got there pretty early.

Just a couple more

My wife Nelda and I had the privilege of giving 'The Little Blue Truck ' experience to two different schools this past week. Thursday was a church school and Friday was CECO. CECO is a school for severely handicapped children.

Man, that’s cool!!

We went to Car Show sponsored by a local Church this Saturday. It had a decent turnout but there were very few Trucks, and fewer "Old" Trucks. Here are some pics for your enjoyment.

Nice trucks , yea getting where you don’t see a lot of the older ones especially with a 6cyl. any more.

Thanks for posting, everyone. I enjoy going to the shows & cruise in’s. The old car/truck hobby covers a lot of territory as far as types & makes of vehicles. Never know what you might see.

I'll be attending the monthly cruise-in this coming Saturday on the square in Scottsboro, AL if anyone else in the area wants to join me. Maybe I'll get to see what the NE AL old truck community is ...

Got out today with the wife and went to a seafood festival/car show over in Waveland. Pretty decent turnout. You see some of the same trucks but this had some different Louisiana folks that must have driven over.

Few more, Yes, you will probably only see a camo trick in Ms. 😂🤣. There are a few good pictures of the raffle truck the blue and white c-10. A very well done truck.

More.

Thanks for the pictures. Nice crowd.
