I plan on going to the Indy show in May. I've went a couple of years ago and I had a great time. Thanks for sharing your pictures, and I hope you enjoyed the event.

I was in Houston for a conference at MD Anderson and saw a group of Mecum auctioneers at my hotel. I wanted to jump in with them instead of going to the conference!

Here are the links to a few of those trucks. They listed the Super as a 71. Passenger side door is a 72, couldn't make out the rear view mirror, and of course they've got 72 door panels. May or may not be a 71 or a Super, regardless, got '72 stuff on it. Still brought $34K:

The C-20 with dual quads (some things I just don't understand):

The orange Blazer that brought 39K big ones...rough around the edges stomper...take home message here...if they're on stage, the top's got to come off if you want to get paid:
