A&W Car Show

Post by F100builder »

Today I went to what was most likely my last show of the year...it'll soon be time for the winter's project of swapping the whole drivetrain! 8)

Good afternoon Patrick, that looks fantastic!!!

Do you happen to have a photo of the engine compartment, taking at the show?

Any other Bumpsides there, or were you the sole representation?

Thank you! Here's a current photo of the engine but it soon will be coming out in order to make room for the new 390/C6. I was the ONLY bump at the show too! :dk:

The truck looks fantastic Pat. Where was the show at?

Why is it that the trucks are always the best running vehicles in the family?

Thanks again guys and Troy, the show was in Payette. It's a pretty good sized show these days and I went to the very first one back in 1988 with my '56 in high school (originally from Ontario, Oregon). There were something like 15-20 cars and trucks in the first one and they were expecting around 500 this year! From now on, I will try and make as many as possible as long as I have something cool to drive to it.

Thanks! If I remember correctly, it's just your basic Mr. Gasket one...I think. :hmm:

***EDIT***

I looked at Summit and Jegs and they DO carry Mr. Gasket ones but the picture doesn't match exactly what mine looks like...I DID, however, find it on Amazon.

It's the Mr. Gasket #1480 and I replaced the element with a Summit brand K&N type and RED filter oil.
