Pic's from a recent show.......

Hey all,
We travelled two and a half hours to an American Vehicle day on Sunday, there were only two dents there!! See, they are rare down here!!
The pic's are of mine, proudly flying flags, and the only other dent, and Australian built right hand drive one.
I have around 120 more pic's, a few of various trucks, and a lot of cars, if there is any interest, I will put them up, in the general section I guess.









There ya have it folks, like I say, if ya want, I'll start a thread in the general section.
Shane

I've attended our local fall car show for the last 4 or 5 years and I've never seen one dentside entered. It's a small show, only 250 vehicles or so but c'mon, not one dent? Funny thing is, they aren't rare here. I do see them from time to time.

If you want to see dents at a show than look in the parking lot. They are just daily drivers for most. I see them on the road everywhere. Beat up, working and doing what they where made for. Ya gota luv em.

Remember...

Remember, I am in New Zealand, dents never came here officially, those that did were imported privately!!
I think, the last US made Ford tuck to come here was the 50 series, as in '53-56, maybe!!

This is awsome! Id love to someday come down your way to a show. Japan too. Did I see your rear side markers are amber colored like the front ones? Ours here are red in the back. So curiosity makes me ask, what else is different in the foreign (to us americans) ones?

Someone changed them for amber, I dunno why, I will be changing them back to red. It isn't a foreign one, it was built in Canada for the US market, and imported to NZ by someone down here privately. It was used over there for 2 years before coming here. There are no differences at all from the trucks over there, because it is one of them!! They were never sent here officially, all were privately imported.
