Street Rod Nats

[RodnRudy]

Just returned from the Nats yesterday eve. Saw plenty of nice 67-72 trucks and of course forgot to take my camera with me! Hope others on this site weren't so forgetful and will post pics. LOL Talked with a few guys about tire and wheel combos they were running as I am in the market for a set. I decided on a set of Billet Specialties Heritage wheels but after seeing the price, $4000.oo for the set I just couldn't pull the trigger. My truck just ain't that nice!
Those old school Torq Thrusts are looking better all the time.

Im amazed at the money that gets spent on just tires and wheels these days. Used to be the budget for a whole build.

Maybe I talked to you one of those days? Seemed like everyone was sizing up wheels for a project vehicle. Myself included... was looking for something for my 32' ford. It's hard to feel good about $3000-4000 for wheels and tires.

Yes I did talk to you about your wheel sizes and your truck in general. You were very helpful and thanks again for that info.
Another fella I talked with was parked by the fountain in the circle. Had a killer red C10. He was also very helpful.
Oh by the way you have one fine 67!

I go to the Nats every year. Never have taken my 68, always take the street rod. A lot of good looking 67-72 trucks. I don't take photos. Too lazy I guess

Thanks!
The guy with the red C10 by the fountain is a really nice guy. I met him down at Goodguys Bowling Green last year and that truck is incredibly detailed.
