Re: Project "Black Betty" (bam-A-lam)

Figured I'd update a few things. Nothing new to report on the truck. It's motorcycle season again. However, my wife and I went to Myrtle Beach in March for the Run to the Sun car/truck show. While I was there, I picked up a new sending unit for "Black Betty" from Tommy's Pickup Parts. http://tommyspickupparts.com/default.html

We had a great time at the show. This is the first year we actually stayed for all three days. Even so, there was still some stuff I didn't see. The last I heard, there were 3000+ entries. For you folks that like pics, I made sure to take plenty. You can take a look here:

In April we went to the Charlotte Auto Fair for the first time. If you've never been, it can be quite overwhelming. I didn't end up buying anything other than some center caps for the rally wheels I plan to use on my Tahoe. It was neat seeing the Charlotte Motor Speedway for the first time as well. You don't realize how steeply banked those tracks are when watching on TV. I snapped a few pics of some 60-66's we saw, & I'll post those here once I get them uploaded.


Last month we went to a local car show here in North Charleston. It's always a nice turnout for a smaller show. Some pics here:
