car show - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**RenoKeene** · 10-20-2012, 05:32 PM

I am actually sitting at the high dollar car show at the Villages. I had no idea how much work it is just showing off my truck. Out of the hundreds of units here I have the only 67_72 here.
Rose is getting a lot of attention, kinda scary with this many people checking out my truck.
I m taking lots of pics so stay tuned....

Rose is holding her own out here, just met 2 guys that worked at St Louis when Rose was built, very cool. I let them answer questions for a while.

Tell Rose to keep it up! Be looking forward to your pictures.

**RenoKeene** · 10-20-2012, 08:48 PM

Rose and I are back home, wow, that was quite the experience. I will post up lots of pics monday. I can tell you that Rose represented us very well, I am proud of her.

I know the feeling.
Today marked my 83rd and 84th car show/cruise night of the year. 2 more tomorrow and 1 more next weekend then the 69'er can call it a year.

**RenoKeene** · 10-20-2012, 09:53 PM

That's a huge schedule. Wait until you see these pics, has to be some of the nicest, big money cars on the planet. No kidding.
No computer access out here in the boonies, you have to wait until Monday.

Way to go, Rose!!

bruceman1968 · 10-21-2012, 08:42 AM

very cool, can't wait to see the pics.

RustyBucket · 10-21-2012, 10:15 AM

My buddy sent me this lil' phone picture of your truck yesterday afternoon. I had good intentions of driving my Blazer over(nice 2hr. ride) but had kin-folks in town. Of ALL the cars & trucks at the show, the ONLY picture he sent was YOUR GMC. He's a '47-'55 guy and don't take pictures of just any ol' '67-'72

Sorry I missed seeing your truck AND a good convertible ride on a BEAUTIFUL afternoon. ... are you going to the Pumpkin Run next week?

Tinkermc · 10-21-2012, 12:42 PM

Pictures are so nice to allow everyone here to experience what you did. Very hard with mental waves

**RenoKeene** · 10-22-2012, 11:35 AM

That's very cool! Lots of people took pictures of Rose, she was a big hit.
I posted the pics (lots of them) in the Southeast section of the forum so they wouldn't get moved, here is a link Hope you guys enjoy looking at the pics as much as I did taking them.

The above link dumps you into the middle of the post for some reason so just scroll up to the top to get the whole story.
Not sure about the Pumpkin run next weekend but I'll probably take Rose.

**Palf70Step** · 10-22-2012, 07:46 PM

Nice pictures!!

**RenoKeene** · 10-23-2012, 10:20 AM

I edited the link so it should work now.
