I apparently have been Instagrammed, whatever that means.
The most frequent questions were about the color, engine and the absent top, along with how long I have had the truck and what I have had done to it. I also had many persons who have family C-10s or 20s to sort out. I let a couple of kids sit behind the wheel if they showed interest in the truck, and I have to admit that several attractive ladies were granted the same courtesy.  |
That’s what happens with my 72 blazer as well. Im not even in the car show in most cases, just parked out to go to car shows, and every time I come back out to leave there’s a crowd around my truck. Haha. It’s a great feeling.
