Pics: First time cruising with my Dad (71 + 72 C10s) to car show today
 
My Dad got his 71 original big block about 12 years ago. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=596708

It gave me the bug, so I picked a 72 while living in Houston in 2012. I moved back to Canada last year, where my family (mom, dad, etc) still live. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...=595586&page=3 Today, I finally got to take my truck and cruise with my Dad and his truck to what turned out to be a GREAT car show in a little town north of Calgary today. A couple hundred cars, burnout contest, 100' drags, and a dyno shootout! Overall, I've been looking forward to getting to have both of our C10s on the same road at the same time for a long time and it was a treat to finally get that today. It will be far from the last time it happens.

Meeting up with some of my Dad's friends at 7:15am this morning at a gas station.

I must say, that color green makes my heart go pitter-pat. Gorgeous trucks, both of them. You guys gotta be proud.
