Wow, what a surprise!
We just finished the day participating in the Goodguys show in Dallas. The drive up in the truck was really fun and pleasant. We came back from looking at everyone's vehicles and we're surprised with an award sponsored by Speedway.
So now we are extending the hotel so we can drive her through the award ceremony tomorrow! If we get lucky maybe it will make the goodguys magazine. The truck is always popular and draws a crowd. Many nice comments on the patina.

Re: Wow, what a surprise!
I was there yesterday as a spectator, and spent some time checking your truck out....Very Nice!!!
I was curious if the owners of the other 67-72's were members or not?

Re: Wow, what a surprise!
Very nice truck and congrats on the award! I wish I could have made it up there this weekend but I ended up having to work and the trucks not quite done. I'll hopefully make it for the show in the Fall. Make sure to get some pics of it in the winners circle and in the parade.

Re: Wow, what a surprise!
Thank you everyone for your kind words and support. This site is really special and I hope to meet more members today at the show. I see many great trucks on the build site and then get to see some of them in person at these shows. It is a treat to see finished trucks that I have watched being built online! Way cool.

The show was good until about 1 pm. Then the bottom fell out and it rained all evening.
