It's white, I would be afraid of looseing it in a snow storm. Still no red ones either. I like blue shiny black and gray maybe a green one even.

I like a long bed for a working truck. A friend of mine had a crew cab long bed and you couldn't park it anywhere. In a parking spot at walmart if you parked in a normal spot with a car in front of you 4' of the truck was hanging out in the road.
A lot of great pics there Al! For some reason the Binder 4x4 with the tractor on the trailer is one of my favorites. I tend to walk by lots of chrome and billet to look at an old survivor or a restored original. I don't dislike the hot rods and customs at all, just seems what I prefer is getting harder to find in shows.
I always said that if a 4x8 sheet of plywood don't fit in the box it's useless---until I got the old beater '55 GMC. For some reason a long box that year was 89".
I learned to drive in 1971 in a 1970 GMC Jimmy 4x4. 30 years later I got the truck, still have it. First car I owned was a '63 Rambler Classic 660. 232 cu.in. Bought it from my sister in '72. It was a darn good car but I traded it off in '73.
Noel, did you guys ever find a 4bbl intake for your Rambler? I been keeping an eye out but pickin's are thin here.

I removed the 4 barrel manifold off my 258 inline 6 before I sold my CJ 5. Still have it but plan to put it on my CJ 7 some day.
Some of the old 360 and 401 AMC engines had 4 barrel carbs, brothers had a quadrajet.
you can still buy aftermarket ones for the 304, 360 and 401 engines.

Goodrich Mi show is a nice one but bring your lunch. they have all the food trucks parked in front of the band stand so it is hard to order.
Nice Mercury rarely seen at shows in this area.

You see a few retractable hard tops 59 Fords. Fellow bought this one from a Detroit area pawn shop for 250.00 10 years ago.

Nice restored old Ford T.
I like the flames and paint on this street rod.

This show always draws 300 plus cars/trucks. there is another show straight up the road 45 miles to the north the same day too. It was really hot this year and there were so many cars and trucks it was hard to find room to put up a sun shade in some areas. Cars were parked on a city street and in the school bus parking area. By 1:00PM people wrre leaving due to the heat. We were told a couple weeks later that for 2019 they are not going to have the scocer tournament and cars will be parked in the grass and that parking lot which is gravel.
A Ford Falcon rag top.
Nice street rod.
Seems some engine swaps creates a rats nest of wires.
Nice Binder.
Don't often take a picture of a 55,56or 57 Chevys there so nearly like belly buttons but this one is so clean.

Well Goodrich is near the northern boader of Oakland County which has some of the biggest towns in the SE corner of the state. The other town Vassar is closer to Bay City, Saginaw so draws from there it seems.
We got to GoodRich because it isn't over 20 miles from home.

A company restores Vetts and sells them.
Fella who owns this set up lives near me but I think he does most shows down nearer to Detroit.
Another nice 442 Olds, I used to set out a folder with papers and old pictures of our car. Not many people look at those so I stopped doing it. But I do like to look at other peoples books.
