Keep it up bro !!!

How was the weather there this past weekend ??

I did some of this stuff when I was 16, but that was about 30 years ago..lol.. just odds and ends in between, so my son and I am learning!


Weather was awesome. I actually was in Laughlin on Friday and Havasu on Sat and back in Vegas on Sunday. Had a barbecue at our local watering hole, and it was fantastic. Love this time of year here.

Truck looks nice. I hope to see it at some of the local shows before it gets too hot.

Thanks you guys! I really like the wheels too. It took a long time to decide on the wheels. I wanted the old school look, but with a bit of a modern tint if that makes sense. I really like Chip Foose's designs, and kind of go after that look a bit. I didn't know how they were going to look because I got them off ebay., BUT I got a smokin deal and they even came with the chrome air fillers. I also wanted a bit bigger wheel without going to 20's so I settled on the 18's. My first choice was actually solid wheels with the moons, but the 18's I found were just too expensive.

Is there a list of shows somewhere? I wouldn't win any awards, but it would be fun as hell to attend!

Re: My Build - Old Blue EyeS

I don't get lists. I have several friends in car clubs that tell me the week of the show. This weekend the show is in Boulder City. I think that it's all weekend long. But it was going on yesterday for sure. I will PM you if you would like reguarding any future shows if you would like. Or you could join the Las Vegas Crusing Association. They publish a monthly newsletter with a lot of local cruise, and show info.
