    Let’s see your memorabilia?!

    We'll have to see about next year. I did already buy my tickets for the tailgate tour in March though so I am going on that. If I can get my 78 done and some AC I will probably be way more likely to go on HRPT again :D I had a good time with everything but the heat :P

    Tripod mirrors on lowered trucks?

    So, after making the decision to use these mirrors, I naively assumed my local glass guy could fix my broken mirror but no, they don't do mirror stuff... Do you guys have a link to a source for rebuilding these things? LMC is all universal stuff which I am not sure it will work here or not.

    Tripod mirrors on lowered trucks?

    I think I am going to keep them for a few reasons, 1. It's the laziest approach and requires no fab work, 2. They look good on that orange truck, 3. I know I can see out of them.

    Tripod mirrors on lowered trucks?

    That is the first lowered one I have seen with them still on it. I am having my truck painted though. In hindsight, I should have just left it alone :D

    Tripod mirrors on lowered trucks?

    So my truck came with the rpo DG4 for the stainless tripod mirrors. They are easy to see out of but, what are they going to look like on a lowered truck? I have seen trucks my color even with the sport mirrors but they look kind of small and are difficult to see out of. Does anyone have pics...

    Southeastern Truck Nationals - Lebanon, TN July 12 & 13, 2024

    I’d like to. The guys putting that on invited me way back in March on the tailgate tour. It’s a decent haul for me to get over there. Should be some pretty scenery along the way though. They have as many trucks as SETN I heard.

    Southeastern Truck Nationals - Lebanon, TN July 12 & 13, 2024

    This ^. They don’t sell one day tickets either so you might as well hit both days. Spectator fee was $20 per person this year and to enter a truck was $50. Truck entry came with 2 passes so it’s basically $10 to bring the truck in if you go with a buddy. Well worth it to keep the cooler close :D

    Southeastern Truck Nationals - Lebanon, TN July 12 & 13, 2024

    I’m glad we got a chance to meet and chat. My drive wasn’t so long but I sure felt the heat on the ride home last night. I’m putting ac in the square and getting to these shows does wonders to re-energize you on getting some of these projects done. I booked my spot on the next tailgate tour...

    Southeastern Truck Nationals - Lebanon, TN July 12 & 13, 2024

    I am one of the 1550 :D but not the square body. I am still a long way from done on that one. With any luck I will have it done for next year's but don't hold your breathe :P If you all see my truck make sure to say hi or leave a note if I'm off gabbing to someone else.

    Power Tour

    I’m pretty sure Summer would go again. She had fun meeting you all too @bucket. I think she would have brought Graham home with us if she could. I’d probably go again if I could. I did have more fun on the tailgate tour though. I don’t know if it was the cooler weather in March, less traffic...

    GM Tailgate Tour - March 2024

    I think I’m going on the tailgate tour again next year. It’s the most fun I’ve had in my old truck. You can register at the SETN show in July. I’ll be down there if any of you all are going. Gmtruckshow.com

    Power Tour

    I ended up having a good time. I wound up with a headache in Columbus but still got out to have dinner with @bucket and looking back, I might do power tour again. The first couple of days were a lot of waiting in line and slow progress. Then it turned into fairly smooth sailing for the last...

    Power Tour

    I made to bg and got my ticket punched. The line into beech bend was 4 miles long when I got in line. Since I had my ticket punched I skipped the wait today.

    Power Tour

    I tried the little Bluetooth speaker on the tailgate tour and it wasn’t very loud. I’m not even bothering with it on power tour. I’ll just hunt around the am stations or listen to the breeze I guess. I could probably use another 12v outlet myself though

    Power Tour

    @bucket are you still going to make the tour this year? I have my carb apart hoping to get my idle circuit working a little better. It was loading up sitting in line and I found a bunch of crud in the bowl. Hopefully getting that cleaned out decent but I put a filter in before the pump and...

    GM Tailgate Tour - March 2024

    The last stop in Sevierville at the fairgrounds. There were trucks of all years on this trip. You guys should check out Yeah Buddy Garage on youtube for a really good review of the whole deal. You will see a new friend save a hubcap of mine on the way to the tail of the dragon in his coverage of...

    GM Tailgate Tour - March 2024

    The trip from Chatanooga to Seveirville was fun. We got to run the tail of the dragon too on a little side quest if you wanted.

    GM Tailgate Tour - March 2024

    This is the scene at Chatanooga. I didn't get many pics here or at any of the events really.

    GM Tailgate Tour - March 2024

    We took the scenic route around little river canyon toward Chattanooga on Thursday. This is a couple shots of Desoto falls we went out of the way a few miles to see.

    GM Tailgate Tour - March 2024

    The last stop was at Lassiter Mountain Dragway where we got to make a few passes down the track if we wanted. I took a group photo way late, this lot was completely full when we got there. We spent too much time at Greening Auto again, enjoying the trip and shorting the show at the stop :D

    GM Tailgate Tour - March 2024
