Merle Coggins Posted June 25, 2013 Report Posted June 25, 2013 I had to do a double take on this one... I wasn't there... My truck was in my driveway all weekend. That one is very close, but it looks like he's got a nicer paint job.

I agree its very similar to yours. Maybe it will be at the WPC show too.

ggdad1951 Posted June 25, 2013 Author Report Posted June 25, 2013 Yup we were parked near each other on saturday. Not bad considering we didn't plan on it. not bad considering there were over 12000 vehicles registered you mean!
48Dodger Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 Great pictures!...Nice work guys. 1200 vehicles sounds impressive.....wish I was there. 48D
ggdad1951 Posted June 27, 2013 Author Report Posted June 27, 2013 (edited) Great pictures!...Nice work guys. 1200 vehicles sounds impressive.....wish I was there. 48D you are off an order of magnitude....you forgot a zero! It is quite insane with that many vehicles. We had heavy storms on Friday and I guess a few cars got flooded up to the windows in the campground...then some people decided it was a good idea to try and start them. Last time I knew water was not a compressible fluid. And the inevitable outcome of doing that....broken engines.... Edited June 27, 2013 by ggdad1951
TennesseeVol51 Posted June 28, 2013 Report Posted June 28, 2013 Thanks for the pics guys-----12,000!!!!!! Whew,I think that would be a little sensory overload. I know most people want a superslick resto on their cars,but I love the pictures you have of the cars/trucks that look original and are drivers. Ed your car and truck look perfect in the pictures.

ggdad1951 Posted June 29, 2013 Author Report Posted June 29, 2013 and I found a few more on my phone I missed.
ggdad1951 Posted June 29, 2013 Author Report Posted June 29, 2013 and I just picked up my "pick" for the weekend. The guy I bought it from was parked 2 vehicles away. He dropped a ferd engine in his 52 and didn't need the old rad....since FEF's has a patch on the lower tank I figured $50 for a back up wasn't a bad plan!
Desotodav Posted July 25, 2013 Report Posted July 25, 2013 I had these links sent to me today and couldn't remember seeing them attached to this topic...enjoy... http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=GDEn3i6g3qo and... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTbDpexbg18#at=144
ggdad1951 Posted July 25, 2013 Author Report Posted July 25, 2013 Davin if you ever get across the lake, you HAVE to come during the 50's show....you got a place to stay if you do! It is quite the experience!
Desotodav Posted July 26, 2013 Report Posted July 26, 2013 Thanks for the offer Mark. I have permission from wifey to do a trip over there some time. I was thinking of doing a Tailgate BBQ trip one day (without my truck though). That back to the 50's show looks like an awesome event as well. 1
Merle Coggins Posted July 26, 2013 Report Posted July 26, 2013 Come in April and stay through June... No worries 3
