Got Trucks? Brothers

I went to the brothers truck show this past weekend and want to share some pics.

This was one wicked truck. Chopped, body sectioned, pie cut hood, and much more.





Here is our own Speedbump. Pics do not do this truck justice it is really nice and plus the owner is a good guy.




Of course Fabguy came out also. What can I say about his truck really tastefully done.


The man stitched his own interior and it looks great.

Okay here are misc pics.

Yeah actually I was asked John to point me in your direction so that I could introduce myself but you were not at your truck. I hang out a little bit with Fabguy and Harvey showed up so we walked the show and when we came back you had taken off.

Re: Got Trucks? Brothers

Thank you for sharing the pics Bam. It was great hanging out and walking the show. Thank you for the pics and compliments on my truck.
Yeah that 55 sectioned/ chopped/ suicide/ etc,/ etc truck was trick, not something I would try to tackle but great fab work and skills by the owner.
I had a great time out there, look forward to the next get together.

Re: Got Trucks? Brothers

Hey Bam, great getting to talk to you again. Thx for the pics and the kind words. Kind of stunning when you see that many trucks in one place. You California guys put on quite a show. Wish I'd known more forum guys were there. Would like to have met ya'all in person, but at my age, I'd probably have forgotten by the time I got back to Tucson.

Yeah man, Bam told
Me to go over and introduce myself and I was going to but then the awards started, I then realized that there were 324 show trucks And about 100 spectators all trying to leave at the same time. That is when my A.D.D. Kicked in and I high tailed it out of there. Sorry man. Hopefully next show

Re: Got Trucks? Brothers

Nice combination of Chevy/GMC grilles!



I can't tell if they're trees behind it, or if it has the big truck 5 window cab. Did you notice?

Yeah that does look pretty slick doesn't it? I would have thought it would be too busy if someone just told me about it. The guy lives close to me but I never seen this truck he had or has another one. But here, it also a 3 window cab. Really cool truck.

Re: Got Trucks? Brothers

I really like this. You notice that the grill and bumper are not original but still looks like they belong there.

Re: Got Trucks? Brothers

Nice pics, you must be a very busy guy! Your name always stuck with me after your "situation" at work, that was some scary stuff. Somewhere I saw your photo album of pics from LA Roadster show, you had to have been standing right by me as my car is in the near back ground of some of those pics. I don't know if I would have recognized you from your pics on the net but I wished I would have. Keep up the great work.

Yeah man I've been keeping myself busy with family, friends, and the joys of life and I'm really doing well. That "situation" was unreal but hey life throws us curves balls sometimes and lucky for me I survived that one 6 others didn't so I know how lucky I am.

I wish you would have recognized me and introduced yourself I always like meeting car guys. Well maybe next time.

BAM
