Well, finished second in the Mild Pickup Class to a very nice 1957 Cameo and won the Street Achievement Award for Paint. A few pictures from the show

Bowtiefreak · 01-23-2006, 07:57 AM

That has been one of my favorite trucks. I love the pinstrip you decided to put down the side.

70c10 · 01-23-2006, 08:42 AM

Congrats Mocwon!. That Cameo must have been pretty sweet to beat your ride. Your truck is awesome!

Hook'em · 01-23-2006, 11:13 AM

My daughter and I saw the truck at the show on Saturday. Mocwon should have some professional pictures taken of the truck, because none of the pics he has posted do it justice.

Congrats!

**special-K** · 01-23-2006, 11:18 AM

Glad to hear it!My guess is age(rarity) made the difference between 1st & 2nd.Not that it`s common to find such a nice truck.

**Yukon Jack** · 01-23-2006, 11:20 AM

Congrats - that is very cool!

**gregfull** · 01-23-2006, 11:45 AM

Congrats!!! I wish I could have come to the show. I wanted to see your truck in person. Maybe sometime we can have a S. Texas meet and greet. Congrats again.
