Took off work today and hit the local street rod show that is going on this weekend. First time I've ever been on a Friday and spent pretty much the whole day in the swap meet/vendor area. Tomorrow will be spent admiring the over 4000 cars and trucks.
Being the show is only 4 miles from the house I decided to drive the truck despite a hole in my exhaust manifold at the collector. Didn't sound bad sitting in the garage so I decided what the heck. Pulled out onto the road, gave it a little gas, and WWWAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!! Wow that was a loud ride but still enjoyed it. Pretty sure its the first time I've taken it somewhere where something didn't break.
Anyways, picked up a few things for the truck. Auto high hump, fender emblems, grill bowtie (didn't need it but the guy threw it in), and a 1967 Indiana plate in the county I live. I will be running this as my tag on the back of the truck. All for $60. Didn't think I did too bad.
Inquired on a set of sold buddy buckets. Guy said he sold them for $325. He then told me he had another set. Needs to be recovered but oh well. More than likely going to be buying those in the morning.
All in all a pretty good day. Here's a few pics as always

Good looking short bed in the parking lot.
