Thread: Annual salute to American graffiti Car Show

When I was a kid (or when Moby Dick was a minnow) there was a dude in Houston that had a hi-boy the same color as that Purple/Blue Truck - - - the name on the louvered rear deck was "Grapette"

Did you happen to get a full shot of the yeller ?B model? with the Flattie?

It runs around town all the time, so if I see it, I'll take a shot for you, I did find this last photo of the description he had posted inside.

Here is his rod on flicker

Thanks for the pictures Steve, yes I agree with you on the awesome colour pickup, I would of said it was blue too, awesome colour. My pick is the white with lemon guards '34 pickup with the guard dog keeping an eye on everybody.

Steve,good pix,love the different types you shot..The contrast between the raised 4x4 pickup and the chopped International[?] on the road was kool,too..
You really got a thing for that blue/purple Chevy pickup,havent you??Yes,it is a neat color,should look real fine on your F1..

I do at that. I think my truck will be that color when done!

Thought as much.. Go for it mate..it will look awesome..

Thanks - - - some may call that a Rat Rod but I call it Old School !

It is very cool in a simple way. I agree it seems old school to me too!
The best thing about the his car is it's a daily runner. He uses it for a daily driver. It doesn't sit in a garage and get polished for shows, matter of fact it doesn't even get cleaned for shows!

thanks for sharing the fine rides with us.
