Well went to the LA Roaster Show this weekend and saw Kim57 and got to met his brother. I also got to meet Parkwood. They are all really nice guys, its nice meeting people from the forum and they turn out to be really nice guys.

Anyway I thought I would share this truck with you. Its pretty sweet.





CAL58GMC,
This is for you I know you are busy with your new chevelle project and thought you would like to see this.

Those are beautiful pics. Where there a lot of trucks (tri5) there or mostly roadsters?

Can we please have a lot more pics of the black truck? I know that you took them.

Sorry I did not take any more pics of the black truck I just thought the removal of the eye brow above the windshield was interesting. I also saw it at the Grand Nationals


When you go to the roadster show the place to hang is the parking lot thats were all the different cars are. I always do one walk through to look at the roadster then I head to the parking lot thats a show within itself. There were some trucks but too many cars to look at in one day. But here is a taste of what is in the parking lot.









This was not in the parking lot area but I thought it was just too sick not to share. Isn't this thing just sick. I know its a Ford but its sick. Some people have money man, and thats the truth.lol My buddy asked him if he could fire it up and he did and my that thing ran perfect.

[hotrod1]

Thanks for the pics. WOW.

Did not notice the brow above the windshield being gone. Looks good buy what a lot of work.

Any idea what kind of door handles they used on the black truck?

Yeah I know. You guys roll deep, especially at the Brothers Truck Show. I seen Johnoro (has the sweet red blazer) there Saturday. I see him at all the local shows and he is always very friendly and goes out his way to say hello if he sees me. He is a really cool guy.

Some beautiful rides, thanks for showing....Jim

[Kim57]

It was neat seeing you and Parkwood at the show Bam.
I liked the black truck also and didn't notice the brow gone from the roof.

Thanks for the pics, Bam. The black TF looks great. The brow and the interior is very nice.

Kabwe i was wondering what was different on that black truck,i thought it was chopped but then the doors looked normal.Did it look good in person or did it look strange with out the eye brow?

The truck is chopped, the roof is sectioned, drip rails removed, and the eye brow removed. Pretty interesting stuff and the work is incredible top notched work. Personally I did not care for the look of it but I was completely impressed with the quality of the work. With the roof being section it gave the roof a flat look they took the radius out of it. They also beautifully sectioned the hood and tucked the bumpers beautifully. I hated the door mirrors but the work was second to none and you don't throw a benz away because it has a busted tail light.lol There will always be things that not everyone will like about a car or truck but the work on that thing was sensational.

Cognac is a good thing better than the 10 dollar cup of beer at the car shows but dang that beer taste good on a hot day.lol
