Some old photos my dad took of my 48 over the years.
I was digging though my photos a few minutes ago and came across and that I don't think I ever posted on here. a couple were taken in Texas in the early 70's and some in the late 70's and the 80's.
First one with it behind me fussing with my T was probably taken during Christmas 1973 when dad flew down for Christmas. That's how the truck looked when I drove it to the 1973 Street Rod Nationals in Tulsa. Second is when I was working on it at home in 1980 after I had chopped it at the school shop then flat towed it home to work on it at home during the summer. Third is after I painted the frame probably winter between 81 and 82. I pulled it down to bare frame sandblasted the frame and painted it and reassembled it and painted the body red. Fourth is my hood in my dad's carport just after we had picked it up in Bremerton wa at the louver guys shop. Fifth is the truck on the back side of the Puyallup fair grounds in the mid 80's. My customizing on the bed didn't work out too good so I pulled it off and made a flatbed. We had pulled our trailer over there for a Goodguys show. I think I was parked there while I walked up to registration when dad found the truck. It had also had a sunroof change that wasn't the best idea.
