The popularity of Chevy trucks has been going strong ever since the first Bowtie pickup rolled off the assembly line. In recent years, that popularity has grown even stronger, extending from the Advance Design era all the way into the 1980s, with the Squarebody era. In between, the ’67-72 Chevy and GMC body styles have seen a huge surge in popularity due to their impeccable styling and a healthy aftermarket. So, it came as no surprise when I heard the news that LMC Truck was spearheading an event that would celebrate all things Chevy truck.
Naturally, Texas was chosen as the location for the event, more specifically, the Texas Motor Speedway in Ft. Worth. With plenty of space for a show & shine, swap meet, and vendor alley the Speedway even had a nice section carved out for an autocross course, affectionately named the “Throwdown in Cowtown”. Any truck registered for the event was offered the opportunity to roast its tires around the cones and many did just that!
In addition to the festivities were a laundry list of awards handed out at the end of Saturday for everything from Best Paint to People’s Choice with a winner and a runner up for every year break (’48-55, ’55-57, etc).
For the CT staff, we had a particular investment in the show. Just a few months back, we built a gorgeous ’85 C10 as part of our Week to Wicked program that was to be given away at the end of the show. So, come Satruday afternoon, we watched with the rest of the crowd as one lucky winner was drawn and awarded the keys. Congrats to George Sepulveda for the big win as well as all the guys who left, trophy in hand!
