Re: My 50 roadster pickup build

Close up pic of my plaque. Out of all the awards and trophies I've won, this one (the smallest) means the most right now.

Hope you guy's enjoyed the pics, sorry about my ramblings....Jim

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build

Hey guys, I really don't like blowing my own horn, but I was really happy when I received by Street Scene today. My truck showed up on half a page in their Mid-American Nats review. This is something big for me, so I wanted to post it....Jim
