First Truck Show
I took the truck to its first show this past Sat and did pretty well. It took home the honor of Best Interior and Best Full Size Truck. My wife, son, and I had an absolute blast.

Re: First Truck Show
Congrats,
That is a beautiful truck. I wish my teenage sons were interested in Hotrod trucks. If it doesn't have a game controller attached to it they are not interested. Jeff |

Re: First Truck Show
Saw your truck in the show pics...it stood out to me even before I saw that it won awards. The interior is awesome, but the paint! Man, what a great color. Well-deserved awards.

Re: First Truck Show
Congrats Donnie, and glad you brought it out to the show. It was well deserved. I only wish I would have gotten over there to look at it. I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off all day.

Re: First Truck Show
You absolutely deserve the awards.
Try having a son that will be 16 in two weeks and don't care about getting his driving license, he still doesn't have his learners yet. Times are so different, I got my truck when I turned 15 and did body work to get it painted before I turned 16 and was sOOOOOO ready to get my license. Of course we cruised like crazy then, now no one cruises our old strips. |

Re: First Truck Show
I couldn't imagine being 15 ready to turn 16 and not wanting my license. That's nuts!

Re: First Truck Show
"DAMN" thats the first thing that came out of my mouth... I hope that I'm raising my daughter right, she cry's because she wants to go to the parts store.
