Gumby looks awesome! well-deserved win!

and I really like that 62 hardtop you got a pic of as well. 62s have always been my favorite Impalas.

Nice pics! thanks for sharing.

What kind of Hub caps do you have on Gumby?

MT1972cheyenne · 03-28-2010, 11:37 AM

Darn, no pics of the Yellow & white 72 Cheyenne. Was it there?

prostreetC-10 · 03-28-2010, 02:36 PM

My truck usually takes "best turd" at the car shows I put it in.

Congrats to Gumby!

The hub caps are 69 to mid 70's chevy trucks. I have the correct ones in my shop,but I prefer to run these.

No they went to Goodguys in Peasanton. Can't tell you what truck they took since they have 40+ show cars to choose from.

Zoomin · 03-28-2010, 09:15 PM

What a nice Imp! Somebody did a lot of blocking to get it that straight.

Sorry we missed you. Yes. My Impala has been a long work in progress. Next I have to put new side glass then top and pinch weld moldings. Then door panels and carpet. Trying to have it done this summer.
