First car show since paint job - Not bad
 

1 Attachment(s)
I entered the pickup in a local Lion's Club car show over the weekend. There were about 250 cars and trucks. For some reason, all the trucks were in 1 class, no matter how old or whether they were modified or not. A bit strange, but oh well. It was a beautiful day and almost every vehicle was really nice. When they anounced the awards, we won runner up in the truck class. The winner was a perfectly restored 1936 Chevy with a hot rod motor. Even though it was a Chevy and had a hot rod motor, it was very original on the outside and a superb restoration.

All in all, my son and I were really happy.

I know you miss the yellow but every Model A pickup should be this color combination. Good Job.

If I'm ever able to have a CCPU, it will be exactly like yours. Really nice!

The color appears to be Rock Moss Green...which was a standard color.

Just goes to show how far an A can go in a field of unlimited possibilities.

I really really really like those closed cab pick ups!!

Actually the color is gunmetal blue. Rock moss green is more of a green color while this one has some gray and blue in it although it is still primarily green.

Thanks everyone and have a great weekend.
