First car show!

Post by Josh »

Took the rig to its first car show in a long, long time. Ended up winning best of show! :D Was a small show, about 80 cars, but, still felt GREAT! There was a constant crowd around the rig, and, when I lit the Cummins and pulled away to go home, the whole place stood still! :mrgreen:

Congrats Josh. It is always a good feeling when good old iron like our rigs snag an award away from chrome and laquer.. :lol: So what did you do with the engine in the pic above?
