When I put my Tempest in shows, it is the old folk that look at my car with that far away look in their eyes....and it is always a similar story....they had one, or dated their spouse in one.
Usually a very magical moment between them and my car, and I get to witness it, but more importantly I get to supply that for them.
I think it is great that you show it.
Mine will be in shows when I am done, and again it isnt about "winning" but the showing and the talking and the friends I have yet to make.
I salute you man, good looking truck !!!

Thank you sir. I do take it to shows and yes...I get alot of that too. At this particuar show I was amazed at how the younger generation admired it.. I don't get that much from the younger crowd. I just didn't build a "Show" Truck... and no offense to those that do. I just build my build my rides to drive my rides. Thank you for the kind words sir.
