Back to the 50's weekend St. Paul, MN - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am going to the MSRA Back to the 50's weekend car show today. Just wondering if anyone else might be going?

I'm bringing a camera so I'll post some pics when I get back! Biggest show in the Midwest!

Bigblue29 · 06-23-2009, 08:04 AM

Here are a few of the trucks that I thought were pretty cool. There were a little over 11,000 cars and trucks at the show.

I have a ton more pics to upload yet, but you can check out a few more http://s433.photobucket.com/albums/q...fiftys%202009/

Yeah that was probably one of my favorite trucks I saw at the show. It was done very nicely!

Do you have a close up shot of the For Sale sign on that gray green 53 or know anything about it?

I dont know much about it. When I saw it at the show I thought it was very well done. I remeber he wanted $34k for it. I think it had a newer SBC V8 maybe an LS motor? If you want I can look at home and see if I can get a phone number off the high res. pics.

solidaxel · 06-23-2009, 04:26 PM

Thanks, if it isnt too much trouble.

eventytoo · 06-23-2009, 05:20 PM

I love that extended cab, any more pics of that one?

Bigblue29 · 06-26-2009, 08:16 AM

Yeah. I ended up taking about 1200 pics. Of those I have about 600 pics of trucks. I'll post some of the extended cab when I get home.

I'd like to meet up with a couple of other MN guys one of these days... It would be cool have a cold beverage and talk truck.
