I've always said I'm not a big fan of trailer queens. I think these cars/trucks should be driven.
But, it really hit me this morning looking at these pictures. What you and others like you are doing is a great service to people like me. You preserve the history of these great vehicles. Probably far better than a museum could ever do.
Seeing these flawless beauties helps us keep our hobby alive.
Lots of beauties here, thanks for sharing and thanks for all your hard work and dedication to our old trucks.

Thanks for sharing, Seeing that white Thunderbird reminded me of the one my uncle used to drive to church on Sundays.....literally. Any other time he was in his old work truck. He ended up giving it to my Brother in Law who I think eventually decided to sell it instead of restoring it, Congrats on your wins!!

Coolest thing about the Bird is the body trim on the door serves as part of the handle !

Congrats again, Denny. Hope you had time to grab a grouper sandwich and d fish dip at Waldo's while in Vero. That '66 Continental next to you looks exactly like one of the many Pop had when i was a kid.

I like factory originals also - I don't think That I could actually own one - When I go down the road of modification it is for safety and/or to make something That I want built as I want it - When I'm building something that won't be stock I will seek out originals to see what I can change without making it so that you can't recognize it
