Doing The Texas Truck Step The 12th Annual Goodguys Lone Star Nationals

Becoming more popular by the day is the Corvette LT1/4L60E powertrain combo that also propels Wyvonne's well-built Chevy.

Compared to Dave Cain's stock-appearing '46 Chevy, Jack Davis' '46 Chevy looks way different. Boise, Idaho, is home for Jack Davis and his nicely customized '46 Chevy pickup. We'll fill in the details in an upcoming feature.

Maroon is an excellent hue for '72 Chevy Fleetsides, as is apparent from Judy and Junior McClelland's well-built ride. Power comes from a 350 and a five-speed. There's no doubt that they were able to get back to Siloam Springs, Arkansas, in no time.

We couldn't resist photographing this orange '55 Studebaker station wagon owned by Drean and John Jones, of Tomball, Texas. You could almost taste the paintjob.

Check out the engine in the Jones' '55 Studebaker wagon. With a 426ci Mopar Hemi under the hood, it's literally impossible to keep up with the Jones, if they've got the hammer down.

With 454/700-R4 power, do you think Steve Green's '59 Chevy wagon could keep up with the Jones' Studebaker? We'd sure like to see him try. He also lives in Tomball, Texas, so maybe he has already tried.

It warms the cockles of our hearts to see Ford power in a vintage Ford truck. Dennis Cannon of Azlie, Texas, powers his screaming yellow '32 Ford 1/2-ton with a 289/C4 combo.

Wouldn't you like to go for a top-down cruise in Jonelle and Jeff Hunt's '72 Chevy Blazer? We'd definitely go for a boulevard cruise, but not off road. Their four-seat, two-door pickup has 350/700-R4 power. The Hunts and their yellow hauler hail from Fletcher, Oklahoma.

Mick Parverson of Arlington, Texas, has a 350ci Chevy-powered, pewter-hued '40 Ford pickup that's the envy of many a '40 Ford pickup fan (including CCT's editor).
