Annual salute to American graffiti Car Show

Well it is the third show I've missed getting my truck ready for, but wow it's fun to walk two blocks from home and see all these beautiful cars. I figured I'd post some of the new entries, and less mainstream this year. Plus a few reminded me of some of the guys here builds so they are for them.

And you just gotta love this bike derailer carberated rod
not to mention the guys I talked with were great! The guy with the purple truck was really friendly, told me who painted his rod and where. The guys with him had two very cool cars too, a Nomad wagon and a 56? Tbird. I told them any of their cars were on my most wanted list since childhood. Very fun day!

Yep That was one to add to the wish list!

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??:DYes,it is a neat color,should look real fine on your F1..:cool:

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

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" :toocool:

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.

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!:D
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.
