I took 1st place at the local car show!

Post by mrtleavitt »

Thought I'd show off a bit. I won my class in the local car show, the 1960-1980 modified class.

I am curious as to what it actually is. Early bed with late hood badges and grille. MIne will end up looking like a '67 but in reality it is a '70.

Good call on the bed w/o side markers-most people don't notice it or don't know enough about these trucks. '69 bed, '72 cab, '74 frame, '72 grille.
