Trucks at Iola show


Recommended Posts

I went to the Iola Old Car Show today, as a spectator. Couldn't swing a full weekend to enter the Ol' Dodge and hang out there. There weren't many Dodge trucks, but here are a few I saw...

When I first saw this one I thought it was Todd B's "Pistol Pete" based on the color. But isn't he a '49 Todd? It seems to have a Ford drive train. "429" badge on the hood and a Ford steering column and wheel.

Interesting scheme on this one...

(Yes, it's not a Dodge... it's a Plymouth)

And a decent '57

I had every intention on going today with the semi but I had to finish up some jobs to meet deadlines (sucks being the boss sometimes). Would have been a great day for it. I was also hoping for tomorrow but my wife informed me we have a grand kids birthday party. 

"D.C. Pete" is a 49 Merle but is also two tone, copper and dark brown.

a 5.

 

Yup he's had many of them over the years. Last one was a 84? CJ7. It was a fun Jeep but had a lot of issues from the previous owner. He's still watching for another. Preferably late 70s CJ7 as he bought a couple of them brand new.
