After almost 5 years work, MY FIRST SHOW! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

MT1972cheyenne · 03-14-2008, 08:06 AM

I just got the truck done. The first place I drove it was to the car show that I had it committed to. Got it done just in time! Man, I had BLAST! I can't wait until some of the outdoor shows this year! It will never look quite as new as it did in this first show, but it will be worth it! Let this be encouragement to all of you with projects in progress! Thanks to all who encouraged me!
