Jeff City, MO Car Show July 2013

Well, I was at home alone Saturday. (Boy that's nice for a change.) My wife and oldest were out shopping for college stuff and called to say they were going to hit a couple more stores and then eat before coming home. Well, they were driving by our mall and my daughter told me there were a bunch of classic cars there. Needless to say, I jumped right in the car and headed into town. During the summer there is a show the last Saturday of every month.

The full set of pictures are here: JeffCityJuly2013 Photos by harrier1351 | Photobucket
I will start with our years:
Beautiful 49



Thought you might like to see the Ford heater:



This flathead:


Is sitting inside this beauty:


There are is a pic of the engine and interior of this one in the above link:




Back to some trucks:


Sun was bad on the front picture of this one. The owner said with the manual shift overdrive, this truck has a top speed of 72mph. He likes to cruise at 55-60. (There is a picture of the undercarriage at the link.)






Sorry, but this Econoline was driving off. I had to hustle after it to get this pic. If the sun wasn't behind the truck, I could have gotten some better pics of it.

C***y Frame Swap

OK, there seems to be a lot of frame swap talk here so I thought I would show this one.
The front half is a 75 Blazer, the back half is a 77 pickup.
It is a 4X4.
I tried to find where the chassis were welded together. Without crawling under the truck completely. I thought I found a frame weld that might be the graft, but it was a weld at this angle "/". I could be wrong though.




His tires are sticking out a couple of inches on each side....

There is a TON of money in this truck. The tonneau cover had a TV built into it that would drop down. With a huge speaker system behind it.

Wow, some beautiful iron there! If I'm not mistaken, in the last picture above, that is a Solstice coupe to the right of the Chev. I believe they only made 1250 of those. Gorgeous cars!

You are correct. It's for sale too. The sign mentioned adult driven and it has never been on a wet road. I can't remember what they were asking for it though.

Great pictures. Thanks for putting the location of the show in the title. You guys up in Missouri sure have some nice shows. I been up to the show in Branson a few years ago and met a great group of people.
