| Antique Truck Show |
23 Oct |
I went to an antique truck show a few weeks ago that was really neat. It is amazing how good the condition is of some of these old trucks. A lot of them actually had pictures of the transformation from rusty old heaps all the way to the shiny finished product that they are today. Many of them were considered to be completely original down to every single nut and bolt. I can’t imagine how much money some of the owners have wrapped up in these things. An on top of that, imagine how much all of those old trucks must have been worth.
Of course it is also a Mecca for vendors. Of course they had all of the usual stuff like ice cream, sodas, and anything they could stick in a deep fryer. They even had something call Indian fry bread which I didn’t try. The one vender who did see me coming was selling truck accessories though. I ended up shelling out the cash for one of those really nice Jobox truck tool boxes which was priced lower than I had ever seen one. So all in all it was a neat show with some vintage trucks, plus I ended up getting a good deal on a tool box that I had been wanting.

When you are buying parts to customize your truck you should shop around. Shopping around offers you many benefits and is a good idea no matter what part you are buying. Shopping around lets you check out different prices, styles and types of parts so you can choose what will work best for your truck.
