Who's Going to Brothers Show?

Bothers Show is July 12th so it's just about here. Just kind of wonder who all is planning on going this year. I tried last year but my tow vehicle could make it. I have a better tow vehicle so I will be there this year for sure this year. I was hoping anyone who's planning on going we could all hook up.

Re: Who's Going to Brothers Show?

Hey Cal58,

It was nice meeting you and your wife, it's good that you can take the wife with you to events like these.

My wife and daughter enjoyed themselves...
There were so many nice trucks out there today that I got some more ideas I'm thinking about doing to my truck, but I must stay on track to get mine done.

Oh yeah, good seeing all the rest of the guys from the forum too.

Did you see the 56 with the Benz drive train?

Hey Cal and Tri5,

It was really nice meeting you guys and your family. Cal I see why your truck is nice the wife seems very supportive. I thought your truck was right at the top its even better looking and person. Mylo53 truck is great also.

Stunning. I can't imagine how many hours went into the doorpanels and dash. The only aspect I don't like is that he kept the highrise seats and headrests. I've always preferred the look of lower backrests.

That benz truck looks to have some crazy modifications done to it. What kind of rear bumper is that?

I don't know, but to me it looks out of place on that truck.
