My rusty/ratty 1948 Chevrolet truck

Actually, I didn't take any others. I took one to prove I was there, put the camera away to go to the swap meet, and forgot about it.

Congrats Flipper. I saw some pictures of it in some Frog Follies coverage.

Did some tweaking on the carb and fixed some oil leaks on the motor that sat for 10+ years. It is ready for the road now.

Dad is going to make the drive from Memphis, TN to Bowling Green, KY for Goodguys. Anybody else gonna be there?

The rust and the ride height has played hell on my front fenders. I came up with a new band-aid. I made a reinforcement.

I didn't think there was enough solid metal to weld to, so I screwed the fender to the brace. A little acid will knock the shine off of the screws. Right now it looks like it was hit with one of those jeweled stud kits off of TV.

Bowling Green was hot and humid, but we still had fun.



I parked next to a really cool little modified on Saturday afternoon. Simple, neat car.





For shatzandgiggles, we drove it to the show and shine judging tent.

Judge told me that that the car with the absolute lowest score wins rat rod.... They didn't call my name as a winner. I guess that is a good thing.

Thanks for the coverage Flipper. You're all over the place in that truck now. It's cool to watch build thread then see the finished vehicle out and about getting some use.

Over 2,000 miles on the odometer now!
