Some pictures from the 2012 Langley Cruz-in yesterday. Weather was a bit hot so we didn't stay as long as I would have liked. It was well attended.

Re: Langley Cruzin is this weekend.

Here's a pic of a "lead sled" I realize it's not a Chevy truck, but it is amazing in look and quality, so I though some may want to see it. Those are not hubcaps.

Re: Langley Cruzin is this weekend.

Nice photos. You guys build some great looking trucks up there.
I always wonder how "hot" it was. Guys from the North Puget sound and BC area seem to thing that anything above 85 is being broiled.

I looked it up 87 degrees in Langley yesterday, boy you guys were really burning up at that temp

Re: Langley Cruzin is this weekend.

BTW, the bodywork on that red TF was flawless. Panel gaps were pretty much perfect.

Re: Langley Cruzin is this weekend.

That COE has been a favorite of PNW cameras at car shows ever since he finished it. You see it in show coverage all the time and the attention is well deserved.

Re: Langley Cruzin is this weekend.

I made the mistake of going with a couple of neighbors who are not car guys and probable missed 25% and had to go around the concours section twice.
Enjoyed it anyway.

Mistake is right! Ya......never do that. When we got home, the Naggin' Waggin' told me "three cars shows in four months is enough for me" Guess I'll have to curtail the number of events, or ..........................

Re: Langley Cruzin is this weekend.

Three in four months is a lot? We used to average five a month back in the 70's and early 80's and usually hit between 25 and 30 a year over a ten year span. Now I am way more selective and don't just go to shows or rod runs to be going.
