I was amazed at the Goodguys Show this year at the Kansas Motor Speedway to see a nice 50's F100 panel truck with signs that basically said feel free to touch our truck !Specifically to KIDS ! It was a real suprise but different strokes for different folks! JNB

I started my old truck in its first show with a roll of sandpaper on the hood and a sign that read if you want to touch, then hit her a lick. 20 bucks a show, average of 150 people sanding, well who needs a sandblaster. Let em touch em and build em to drive.

I meant to add. they ain't chevys, so handprints won't cause flash rust.

I've only had my '48 F-1 a short while, and still working on it, I've only been showing my Crosleys. There is alot of intrest these little cars ( we have a '51 "Super" wagon, and a '47 Convertible, and I just aquired a '48 sedan) and we always let parents take a pic of their kids sitting in the car, or let the parrents sit to see that the cars are bigger inside than they look. It seems Crosley people are not "Do Not Touch" people, but I can understand that some people with "Big Bucks" cars are resistant to touching them.
