    Looks like you had a great day with great weather and lots of vintage tin. That old gas station probably had $10K in signage outside !!!! WOW

    Yeah well Friday it is! I decided no way was I gonna fall asleep early enough so I hopped in old smokey and decided to hit the road. I'm at a rest area on the Jersey turnpike now eating burgers and charging my phone. Just filled the Ford up. About 35 or so miles in so 175 to go.

    46, if ya make it to the show look for a blue 54 Ford Customline Fordor with Jersey plates.

    Why are the front of those trucks cut off and rowed up like that?

    big truck grilles and fenders are hard to sell and rather than crush them he has found a market for "wall hangers" which sell good at non-car events like big flea markets and some buyer buys big loads of them from him.

    This makes up for it

    ok, just the elusive hood ornament makes up for the missing ice cream ;)
