Re: 55 2nd serie GMC

Drove the truck to Bowling Green KY a couple weeks ago, for the Trifive National, 3000 miles round trip, had a great time . There was over 1800 5-6-7 cars there and only about a dozen trucks, i was the only GMC there. Did little bit of visiting on the way back. Stop in Iowa at the American picker's store and also cheked out that 58 chevy up in a tree in Wisconsin.

Nope, that would have been cool. I guess now that the place is full of touristes they dont hang out there that much anymore.
