Classic Haulers Converge On Cowtown

Justin Montez owns this red and silver-flamed '97 Chevy Blazer that's flamed to within an inch of its life. The interior matches the exterior color scheme.

Tom Cummings' electric-blue '42 Willys pickup was keeping good company with Bobby Langley's re-creation of his vintage "Scorpion" Top Fuel dragster circa 1959. Both vehicles were part of the NitroGeezers.com display.

Tim Cummings' (Tom's brother) red '41 Willys 1/2-ton hauler features a patriotic theme; it's powered by a TPI 350ci Chevy and hustles down the road in the blink of an eye!

You're looking at your atypical "grandpa's truck"-this blue '49 six-cylinder-powered Chevrolet is owned by Kennedale, TX trucker, Billy D. Gilley.

Another local favorite was Sam Gilley's green and white, Kennedale-based '72 Chevrolet C10. Sam's C10 is an outstanding restoration with various N.O.S. parts. Can you say "clean green machine" real fast five times?

Paint-and-body man Billy Mc Swain, of Rockwall, TX, unveiled his '05 Chevrolet SSR mild custom at Ft. Worth. The roadster pickup features an Eaton-Magnuson supercharger, airbrushed-woodgrain side paneling, and big-inch billet wheels. The truck won one of the top trophies for outstanding details at the event.

Jerry Thompson's '51 Ford F-6 2-ton originally started life as a dump truck. However, in the process of being fully restored the Colleyville, TX-based F-6 has been converted to a fine pine stake bed. Let's go on a hayride!
