Goodguys, Puyallup 2012

[zbuckster]

Here are a couple links to the pictures I took on Sunday at Goodguys. I am posting them as two links, one for models and one for full scale. Between the two there are almost 800 pictures and that's a lot for anyone to look through.

It was a good show well done. I was told there were 250 models there, I didn't count them but believe it.

One of the things that happened at this years show was the Model Exchange. The Theme was set last year as "Any Pickup". So when it was all done ( no last names) Dave got my truck, I got Floyd's truck and Floyd got Dave's truck. It was a fun thing to do and now they plan it again for next year. The theme was drawn from a hat. "Replicate any Funny Car". That was further defined as "Funny Car must have Flopper body" and Replicate a real car " Must have been a car the competed it NHRA Competition". More people responded this year and they plan a class for the entries separate from the rest of the show next year. I think it will be fun.

Here are the links.

Hope to see everyone there again next year with a flopper in hand.

Here is a link to the Truck I built for the exchange and also photos of the one I got in exchange. Thanks Floyd I am very happy to have this truck in my collection. The truck I gave is the 1951 Chevrolet and the one I got in return is the 1941 Chevrolet. Pictures on the 1951 atart on page 1 and pictures of the 1941 start on page 4.

What a wonderful display of creativity! Thanx for taking so much time to take pix!! The fotos are all clear and screen-filling! The models, especially are of interest as they give us all the chance to let our imaginations run wild. All I can say is I'm envious of the volume of models on display and the energy it took to organize and run the show(s). Thank you!
