Saturday pics (4-18) Spring Rod Run

Here we are again guys! The weather was forecasted to be primo today so we loaded up in the 54 for our longest trip in it to date. The Grand Rod Run was this weekend and is usually THE place to be if you want to see thousands of cars and trucks scattered about. Let's move on to some pics!!

Double jeopardy/controversy here guys... a chopped top and a late model bed! ( Yep, That's Christy's 54 back behind it)



Can't get away from em can we...??











This joker has some tremendously wide rear tires...apparently they didn't photograph well.





This one was a Big Block A/C buckets Super Cheyenne...I think the price was 35K or so.

Good to see the local LEOs doing their part to keep things under control...









Ok...



According to this, I'm NOWHERE near a road!! Makes a good speedometer though.

With the way most of em are priced you shouldn't be sad! The Rod Run weekends are known for having highly inflated prices.

You have to look at it like this. Either they're selling something that they've got very little in trying to make some money...Or they're tired of it and want to move on to something else...Then there's the minority that are genuinely in a bind and turning loose their pickup in order to make ends meet somewhere else. I DEFINITLY have no pity for the first two...The guys in the other category...at least they've got something of value that someone else desires, otherwise they'd be even worse off. I'm happy that they're smart enough to turn loose of an old truck that they're probably not driving and don't need instead of loosing they're home or business.

Besides, very few of us on this forum would have a truck to work on if it wasn't for someone else deciding that they didn't want it anymore! I'm not sure but I would bet that the number of one owner/original purchaser members here are very low.

This is just too cool



It's a shame you don't have any more pics of the ex. cab! It looks to have been really well done.
