There were quite a few trucks there this weekend and we each won a trophy for our trucks. It was pretty cool. It was my first trophy and my brothers 5th or 6th & My cousin's 3rd or 4th.
Oh damn, now I want my truck to be a show truck, those are beautiful. I plan on eventually getting a nice 2WD f100 with a 302 or something that I can show off around town.. I love my truck but regardless of the time, money and effort I put into it the thing will never be a looker. I just don't have that kind of relationship with this particular truck (my 78'), it will always be one of those trucks I don't care about scratching..
since we're in a bashing mood, at the salvage yard in vegas, the dodges are in the back row next to the crusher, no one even scavanges parts off them much. how many old dodges do you see on the road older than 94? (we do like to take their cummins engines though. lol)
OK, I figured I needed to spice things up by reminding some people in here of a certain set of old Dodge Rams that are worth remembering..maybe even honoring. ANyone remember the 'lil Red Express trucks with the 360 Interceptor engines and chrome exhaust stacks? how about the '78 Power Wagon Macho like the one used in the TV Show Simon & Simon? Come on, give some respect to anyone who wants to restore and drive their old iron..after all we are ALL in the same boat-especially with $3.55 gas and so called global warming.
If this was a place to respect the dodges why don't we call this site "Anyone who Owns a Truck Enthusiasts"...haha just playin. I'm sure we all respect well built machines...but this is a website dedicated to FORD.
I know, I know...sometimes I just get tired of all the bashing. LOL
"Can't we all just get along?" I love my old Ford (I'll love it more whenever it is FINALLY complete) but given the opportunity to own a lil Red and hear those twin stacks under W.O.T.....I guess I'd have to add a bay to my garage.
