I took the old girl to a local show just to be different and she brought home a second place trophy. We had some nice pick-ups for competion but the unique big truck must have won peoples favor. All of the competitors do the voting, not judges, which makes it a little more fun. Needless to say, I had a fun Saturday,

Scott,

A beautiful old girl. I love to see folks resist the temptation to stick west coast mirrors on their big trucks. Nice painting detail on the grille bars too!

That flatbed came from another truck I got that ended up with a rock bed on it.

Thanks for all of the compliments!
