NON Chevy’s in the Wild

[Barrman]

Does that Oshkosh have wooden body panels? Cool.

I like the ammo can tail light mounts on the back of the background vehicle in the first picture. Very unique and probably useful.

Got any more pics from that event ?!?

Just a few non-Chevys spotted out in the Wilde.

The SHELBY was part of a parade earlier in the week - and it is FINE !

Ole NVRENUF sent this to me today - it was driving through his neighborhood and he was able to catch a pic while it was turning around down the street.

I didn’t take many other pictures at the Rock River Thresheree, most of the ones that I did, were in the Rock & Dirt area.

Here's my 1966 Peterbilt 351A project semi-truck that my Dad started, but he passed away in Jan 2019 from brain cancer. I told him that I would finish in tribute to him.

He fabricated the front bumper, radiator, cab, engine, and transmission mounts. He installed the cab and nose onto an 03 Ford Super Duty shuttle bus chassis. Then he installed an 8.3 Cummins and a 6 speed manual Eaton business class transmission in it.

He got too sick to finish installing the required stuff to make it run again - fuel, wiring, interior, etc.

I found the 1967 KW 32" coffin sleeper for it. I found the set of 19.5 Vision Hauler "Petey" wheels and tires for it in Northern Washington.

Spotted a F-250 still gett’n used for boat hauling duty and a CJ-5 that appears to be still gett’n used and driven fairly regularly but those tires are confusing me - I thought that tread pattern was retired a while ago ?

Almost wreck’d the truck when I spotted this ole Scout II - very nice ride !

 

[nvrenuf]

That’s NICE!

My money is very old tires.

Note the Prius in the garage.

Spotted these two Saturday.

The ‘70 Mustang sounded as sweet as it looked !
Running rich enough to give off the smell of exhaust that only comes from a carb’d engine a little out of tune.
This thang was hitt’n-n-thump’n, wiggl’n-n-jiggl’n real hard and must of had at least a 3,000 loose stall in it. Chirp’n-n-dragg’n tires goin around corners as only a spool would do - it appeared to be the real deal hot street setup.
Did I mention how good this thang sounded ?!?!

The JEEP was pretty cool too - saw it right before I saw the Mustang over in Ocean Springs, MS.
