My 67 at the SF Rod, Custom, and Motorcycle Show

[John Fabris]

Hi All,

Thursday, January 10, was setup day at the Cow Palace, starting at 10:00am. I woke up around 7:00am, and it was raining. I only have a flatbed style trailer, and I had already spent two days cleaning and detailing the truck from top to bottom. Spent a good 3 hours laying on a creeper cleaning the frame...
Suppose to leave around 10:00, two of my friends, my wife and my boy are waiting for me to pull the truck out of the garage. I keep saying the rains gonna stop, I can feel it....

I can feel it?!?! I am no weatherman, so I pull the truck out into the rain and we load it up on the trailer, and then off to San Francisco. Got there, and unloaded the truck and drove in into the hall and got my spot. We rolled out the diamond plate rubber garage flooring, and part the truck on it. We had to dry the truck, then did a wax, repolish chrome/aluminum, and clean the windows, then wipe the tires and flooring clean and we were done in about 1-1/2 hours.

Hung out there friday night, most of the day Saturday, and the end of Sunday. There were not very many trucks enter in the show, and because of the number of different classes, pretty much everyone got a placement award of some kind. I was able to take FIRST PLACE in the Mild Late PickUp catagory. I wished there was more competition there, but, none the less, they did review my truck and accept it for the show, and I will gladly take a first place award. Here are a couple of pictures. The last one is for Josh,
