Two no-shows for Norwood - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

History:
My 71 GMC had a fuel vapor lock the Friday before & on the way down to Norwood my son's 68 S/B engine started knocking so we left it in Salem, Mo. We finished the trip in my 69 L/B.
Today there was a car/truck show in Desoto, Mo. The class we entered them in was 67-80 Modfied. Four eyes took 1st, his 68 took a very respectable 3rd.

Wish I would have known about that show. I have been there several times. I would have ran down there.

It is an awesome show, we've been there the past two years, and wouldn't miss it for anything.

Thanks for the replys. The next 3 months are busy with car shows / cruises. our main effort is to not travel to far yet enjoy meeting and inviting other 67-72 trucks to this sight.

I saw the black fleet being put on a roll back in Salem, MO I think. Holy cow that truck is gorgeous wow. I almost had a wreck looking at it jk. Cherry truck though btw. It was that weekend of the meet.
