The largest pick up car show in the world

Hi


The Kuwaiti club for cars and bikes has organized a huge event it was one of the most largest car show in the Middle East if it's not in the world for pick up trucks.. The attendance was more than 1000 pick up trucks from all around Middle East for the car show ,the show was organized by Kuwait classic Trucks group and it was amazing by having all kinds of pick up trucks (Stepside , Square bodies, short and long beds, customized trucks) and many more it was a huge success for us that we closed one of the largest stadiums in Kuwait parkings .. all the local and international media has attended for the event and it was a traditional way for the car show.


For the people who don't know me I'm the admin and the president of the classic cars in the Kuwaiti club for cars and bikes

It looks like a new car lot stuck in time. That must be very cool to see.
Thanks for sharing.

It looks like they know where the best trucks were built. I can't see any off brands in the field just GMC/Chevy.

Re: The largest pick up car show in the world

Incredible number of these trucks all in one place. And from what I've seen in previous posts here, they are restored to new condition. Cool gathering.

Is there something traditional or ceremonial with the swords in the first picture?

Re: The largest pick up car show in the world

That has to be the most impressive gathering of those trucks in the world. The only time you would have seen that type of gathering here in the US was when they were new and sitting on the lot.

Just beautiful . Thanks for sharing Saad.
You have an impressive collection . is it just the three trucks or do you have more now? I remember the red/white one,, the two toned tan one that is perfect, and the beige(?) wood bed floored one.

Re: The largest pick up car show in the world

Hello a good man. Great pictures and gathering. I know why I/we love/want these old trucks what motivates you and your friends to want them?? Do you drive them or just enjoy collecting?? Looks like most of them are close to showroom stock?? Hope you do not mind the questions. Thanks.

There are plenty of other companies such as Ford - Dodge - Toyota - etc. This year the festival is quite different from the previous presence there arrived in 1000 cars
