Looks like you're building a new car/truck nut one show at a time.Maybe he'll be smart enough to make money at it unlike the rest of us.

I take him to every show/swap meet that I can.He loves it!The Burb is his and he'll make sure you know it"That's my truck.....it's not yours Daddy".He gets under the trucks with me and looses my tools for me all the time.Every once in a while he'll hand me the tool I need though.The bug has bittin him for sure!Hooked he is

that's one way to find out if the headers are hot!

Cool pictures, thanks for sharing. That gold (or tan?) and white 69 is sweet - was it for sale?

Also diggin the 55.1.

The gold /white one has a piece of tape on the windshield that had 16,500 on it.It was a nice truck but I don't think it sold.It was there last year too.

i saw that, but couldn't read til i put on the specs!! Thanks. It looks about worth that price in my book. Nice looking truck. I have a spare radio!!! Oh well, I'm really lookin for a 72, but I love that color combo - and I love that color interior. Nice non-original houndstooth seat cover, that goes very well in that truck.

Nice pics. I love the one with your son working in his engine compartment.

You forgot about the firetruck at the far edge. My little boy Kolbey thought the front bumper was a sidewalk and didn't want to get off. I wish we would have gotten a better pic of the truck itself.

The orange Blazer is nice, he's a local guy I have run into a few times around here. Definitely a nice survivor! Also, I talked to the owner of the gray GMC (a beautiful truck!) I believe he said it sold earlier that day.

I didn't forget about it.I took pics of it last year in the very same spot lol

The orange blazer was very nice.The owners name is Larry.Real nice guy,we talked for about 15 min.I got his phone number and am gonna try to get him to join the site.Shame we didn't run into each other.Be good

That truck was sweet! It was very well done! I'm sure he had more than $16,500 invested in it.

I never did catch the owner of it around. Was the engine carberated, or had they upgraded it? By the looks of it, I thought it may of been possible.

No kidding. I saw a NOS rear step side bumper for $150 that I considered trying to get for the 72 in my signature, but I realized we were in the wife's grand cherokee and she really didn't want me strapping it down to the roof.
