Really fun show......

If I wasn't headed up to the nor cal even the following weekend I would have gone. Just too much stuff to wrap up on the truck and around the house.

Hey my fellow So Cal friends. I was at my friends shop yesterday and next door to him is another shop where the guy does customizing work kinda like a 310. Anyway his partner saw my truck, and made me an offer. For the condition of my truck, its a heck of an offer. I would get what I put into it plus extra. So yea im thinking about parting with it.

LOL!! Coolbus thats always the plan. We've had 3 meets so far, but I think the CPP meet got people looking towards that one. But, if you decided to plan one or just throw out a date and location, those that can make it will come. Let me know.

Where are ya parking? Do you pay to park in the show/sale area? I always see people cruising down the main drive and figured they must have paid to park in the show area?

TonyC66 10-16-2010 09:39 PM

Re: SoCal checkin' in
 
Yes, I pay 25 bucks to pay and park with the other cars, its much easier in my opinion. The cars you see are not really cruizin, they are either coming in or leaving.

Hello to everyone, i just found ths great thread.
Checking in from Anaheim and currently building a 1971 C25. I picked her up about 2months ago and I started with the interior. I figured since I'll be spending most of my time in the truck might as well be comfortable sitting in it. I'll post some pics later when I figure out how to start my own build thread.

Only took me 4 years to find it!

I've had a few of '67-'72s over the years and went on the search earlier this year for a '64-'66 Suburban, which somehow landed me in my '87 crew cab dually... Go figure. Thanks for the welcome guys. I'll look forward to giving you all an old truck thumbs up on the road some time. Posted a photo of the dually so you know who's thumb it is!
