well, here are the only three bumps that showed up to greaserama on saturday. i see the welding truck all the time in kansas city, kansas. it's pretty nice, with good paint and shaved drip rails. i would have got more pics but it started pouring and i made a run for the beer tent.

The last pic is my truck! Thanks for posting! Its a merger of a 68 and 69 but I love this truck more then any other truck/car I've ever built. Its a 68, cut coils in the front, axle flip in the read and the fram is C nothed. It has a 460/C6 combo and I'm working on a new 9" for it now. I wish you would have stopped by and chated!
The beer tent anyone besides me catch that. that's my boy Chris right there

Great stuff. Bumps are rare at the shows around here but this '72 XLT showed up last week...
one of those 'handmedown' trucks; passed through the hands of his two older brothers to him. Not restored but great shape and he hauls his holiday trailer with it.
here's a couple of others that showed up
wish I could say this one followed me home but it was only behind me for a few seconds
kind of reminded me of that Paradise Road scene but there warnt no black 55 Chevs in sight....

I always thought that cars like that would melt if they were out in the rain.
Like that F350! I have never seen another DRW bump on the road here in NY. Just 71Longbed and cooltoolguy's bump dumps in NJ.
not at greaserama. i think the only car there that came in on a trailer was a 60's style slingshot drag rail. even then, he drove it around the drive in all day saturday. it was pretty cool.
